HOW TO KEEP READERS TURNING PAGES

Suspense and tension are necessary components for reader engagement, no matter what genre you write in. What makes something suspenseful, and how do you do that in everything you write?

MOVES AND COUNTERMOVES

Every plot has many moving pieces, and every piece affects all the others. When one piece isn’t pulling its weight, the story suffers. In this class I look at how antagonists can help beat writer’s block and create a solid plot that will both intrigue and enthrall.

BUILDING A PLATFORM THAT WORKS FOR YOU

Platform. Platform. Platform. By this point, we’re all tired of hearing about it. But what does it mean? How do you go about building one that works? What does it mean to have a personal brand? In this class, I look into how to create a simple yet professional brand for your platform so that you’ll be both well-known and well-liked as you build a platform that works for you as you sleep.
