Binding the Whole Together: Twelve Tricks to Transform Strong Scenes into a Cohesive, Compelling Finished Book

Do you have a book or just a collection of scenes? Masterful memoirs and compelling novels require more than a series of well-crafted scenes pieced together in a row. No matter how effectively written your individual scenes are, knitting a finished book together into a dramatic, cohesive whole requires a discrete set of skills beyond strong scene writing. In this workshop, Laura Davis will reveal twelve secrets she used during the final edit of her award-winning memoir, The Burning Light of Two Stars, transforming a completed manuscript into a gripping page-turner. You’ll also get Laura’s Writing Toward Courage: A 30-Day Practice, a collection of prompts intended to help you find more courage in your life.
