1st5 Pages Workshop

What an incredible opportunity it is to see your book in print, audio or e-book. However the journey to that point is a long, despite beautiful, journey. Writing the story is only the beginning. After that you’ll begin editing.  That’s cool too, because you learn more about your characters and story with each. It would be great if that’s where it ended. But of course, does not. However the feedback of beta readers is invaluable. No book would ever get published without them. And it’s fun and nice to see different perspectives. This is when your manuscript and story are great and as polished as you can get it. But the beginning of your story is what makes a reader want to take this journey with your characters. And that’s why the 1st 5 Pages workshop is so fantastic. What you learn about your opening pages from the other writers, your author mentors, and finally the agent of the month will transform what  you bring to your readers into something special.


A great big thank you to Elizabeth for hosting the workshop. It offers emerging writers an amazing opportunity to grow and improve opening chapters. And very well done to the winners each month, who get to work with the chosen agent of the workshop! Visit the site here.
