Novel Bootcamp: Week 1 (Sep 24 2022)

Week 1: Prose / Premise (Sep 24)
We start with a crash course on the English essentials required to write an effective book. What makes clear, detailed, beautiful prose? We’ll look at premises (both high-concept and execution dependent) and start to think of how your own premise might act as the foundation for your entire story.

Join pro writer Conor Kyle for a twelve-week crash course on writing novels. Geared toward (but not limited to) commercial fiction, we will develop killer premises, build out compelling worlds, and complete a 50,000-90,000 word manuscript in time for NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month). Examples of popular commercial fiction genres include fantasy, science fiction, crime/mystery, romance, thriller and horror.

Bring your novel ideas and loglines!

This course is ideal for:

• beginning writers seeking to understand the core concepts of prose and novel writing; or
• experienced writers who want to write a brand new novel draft in a more formal setting with the guidance of an experienced writer.
