Writer's Workshop: Monday, March 7th

B. A. M. !

Crafting Fiction and Creative Non-Fiction

with the

Book  Architecture Method

Do you meticulously script every writing session?
Pilot your writing solely by feel?
  Looking to write more and procrastinate less?

Finding your unique approach requires a method rather than a formula. The Book Architecture Method has helped bestselling writers transform their messy manuscripts into polished books.

Accomplished and aspiring writers who participate in this workshop will gain further insights including:
  • How to painlessly create a complex narrative
  • What “plotting” actually means and why there isn’t one narrative arc but several.
  • How to make sure your book has one “theme” – and one theme only.
  • How to separate your work into scenes and use this disassembly to diagnose what’s going wrong with your manuscript.
  • The secret to why some narratives feel like they are all coming together at an emotional pay-off while others do not.

Monday, March 7th

9:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m.

C.O.D. PACE Classroom,

Westfield Mall, Palm Desert

This one-of-a-kind 5-hour workshop will be facilitated by Stuart Horwitz, founder and principal of Book Architecture.

Stuart has spent over fifteen years helping writers become authors, signing with top literary agencies, sealing deals with coveted publishing houses, or forging a successful path through indie publishing. Book Architecture’s clients have reached the best-seller list in both fiction and non-fiction, and have appeared on Oprah!, The Today Show, The Tonight Show, and in the most prestigious journals in their respective fields. http://www.bookarchitecture.com/about/

"...Stuart has taught me is to consider a reader’s expectations with regard to clarity and consistency of theme. I have faith in his ability to help writers to untangle the gravest snarls and turn their work into clean and accessible artistic endeavors.”-Liza Ward is the author of Outside Valentine (Henry Holt & Co. and Picador).
