• Revising a novel can feel overwhelming: To prune and pick through tens of thousands of words can feel like an impossible feat—sometimes, stepping back is necessary to see the forest for the trees. In this three-hour craft class, we’ll use the novel synopsis as a tool for revising your novel. We’ll study clear, compelling, and effective synopses, practice crafting our own synopses, and learn how we can use our synopses to clarify and revise our novel’s focus.  

  Leave with several examples of successful synopses, a step-by-step guide for creating novel synopsis, as well as strategies to kickstart your revisions!  

  What to expect: 

  • Craft Discussion: teachers and students explore essential elements of the craft. 

  • Optional writing or reading outside of class 

• One, three-hour session, Monday February 10th at 5 pm PT/8 pm ET

• Cost: $114. More info and registration here.

  Students say… 

  “I thought Grace was very kind and intelligent, she is a great listener and I really appreciated how organized her class was. She sent out notes from start to finish and it was very impressive and not something you see everyday in an online course.” 

  “Grace is really awesome, I would definitely take another class from her. Great presence.”
