Review the 2017 programme or book now.   The first sentence can’t be written until the final sentence is written.” —Joyce Carol Oates “When writing a novel a writer should create living people; people, not characters. A character is a caricature.” —Ernest Hemingway “When your story is ready for rewrite, cut it to the bone. Get rid of every ounce of excess fat. This is going to hurt; revising a story down to the bare essentials is always a little like murdering children, but it must be done.” —Stephen King Take workshops on plot, character, pitch, prose, dialogue, and points of view/voice with professionals.
