It’s official! We’re happy (and downright honored) to welcome Amy Christine Parker to the WA team! Over the last four years Amy has taught workshops for the studio and contributed to our blog. She’s a successful YA author with three published books and an excellent presenter!
Amy has created an online class for us called “Plotting Your Prose” and it will be available by the end of January!
Here’s a little about Amy’s new online class:
Is writing a novel on your bucket list? Or have you written a novel or two, but find you’re still struggling to figure out a workable system to increase your productivity and the quality of your work? Finishing a novel can be intimidating no matter how much experience you have.
But…
What if it could be easy and joyful instead? What if you could set up an effective system for idea development and story outlining that could make the brainstorming and writing faster, easier and significantly reduce any revisions needed?
This self-paced course will provide the tools to: develop your ideas into fully realized pitch-worthy premises, create story boards that will help guide your plot, characters, and setting in the right direction, and brainstorm scenes that will cover all the essential plot points every good story requires. Broken down into easily digestible short session modules and accompanied by a workbook filled with extended tips, tricks, helpful tech, and links to books and articles to extend your studies, this course will help both beginning and experienced novelists.
