This day-long workshop is hosted by the Florida Heritage Book Festival folks.

Ideas hit us all the time, but we don't always know how to turn those ideas into a novel, or what's the best way for us to develop those ideas. In this workshop, you'll learn multiple ways to break down your idea and turn it into a solid plan for your novel. You'll work on exercises designed to help you:
Brainstorm your ideaFind your protagonist and antagonistCreate compelling charactersFind your core conflicts and use them to build your plotDevelop your settingDetermine the key turning points of the plotDiscover your themeFind the right structure for your writing process This hands-on workshop will guide you through the novel-planning process and help you find the plot and story within your idea. By the end of the day, you'll have a solid outline (or guide for those who don't like to outline) to your story.
