Writing a Novel or Short Story
Participants will learn how to successfully create, develop, or complete your
novel or short story by FIRST focusing on the basics, such as character development,
scene creation, and a fully developed plot, which will enable you to construct
a coherent, satisfying story scene-by-scene, and chapter-by-chapter. Just as

the main conflicts and actions of your story, will make your writing a far more
manageable and rewarding experience.
