Focus on Fiction: November is National Novel Writing Month. Whether you write novels, novellas, short stories, or plays the basic foundations are the same. The three sessions of this interactive workshop will cover some of those basics including character, plot development, and the importance of the first few lines. Each session will provide opportunities to write, share and receive feedback on your work.
