Fine Tune Your Manuscript 

Do you want to get your manuscript in tip-top shape before you send it out to agents and publishers? You've spent a lot of time working on your novel so make sure you give it the best start in life and get ahead of the dreaded slush pile!

We asked past Writing School participants what would help you most in your novel writing, and many of you wanted a workshop that will teach you what editors and agents are looking for. You also asked us to show you some of the best techniques for polishing your manuscript and getting it ready to submit. This is the workshop for you!

Richard will spend the day working with a small group of novelists who have completed or nearly completed a manuscript. The day will include examples, discussions and group feedback. Please bring the first three chapters of your manuscript (this is the usual request from agents) and be prepared to share it with the group.  BOOK YOUR PLACE TODAY.
