Mid-Willamette Valley RWA Presents:
Our July 2010 3-week
online class: Plot Fixer: the 15 Most Common Plot Problems and How to Fix Them
Taught by Kara Lennox/Karen Leabo
Description: Do you create wonderful, three-dimensional characters who then stumble around blindly in your book, trying to find a story? As a frequent critiquer, contest judge, and the recipient of many, many rejection and revision letters over the years, I've witnessed and personally experienced just about every way your plot can veer into a ditch. In this workshop I'll cover the fifteen most common problems, how to spot them and how to fix them them.
