Sticking the Landing w/Kim Wright
Sunday, November 20, 2022, 1pm-4pm ET. In-Person, Location TBA.
A book is only as good as the last impression it leaves with the reader. In Sticking the Landing, we'll explore how to write a compelling finale and hit the sweet spot of satisfying the reader without tying everything up in a neat (and possibly boring) little package. Then we'll look at the brief yet important "Act 3" and discuss the sticky wicket of wrap-ups and epilogues. Finally, expect a discussion of rewriting, seeking outside edits and beta readers and the first steps you'll need to take in finding an agent.
NOTE: For the safety of all FWR participants, masks will be required at all indoor IN-PERSON FWR workshops and events. In addition, you must provide proof of COVID-19 vaccination, including at least one FDA-approved booster shot, to attend any IN-PERSON workshop. Instructions for submitting proof of vaccination will be provided in your order confirmation.
