“Writing to market” isn’t new. But when teachers talk about it they focus on understanding the market, advertising, brand and pitch. But what about the writing and craft of writing to market? If you’re tired of trying to work out how to deliver what readers want, then this is the workshop for you.
In this session, I’ll explain:
How to deconstruct bestselling books and implement the tools you findAn easy three step methodology for deconstructionPractical examples of deconstruction and implementation in your own workWhy you’re not using copywriting enoughHow to intentionally slip TikTok-able/Marketable scenes into your novels that will hook readersThe craft of tropesLive deconstruction using examples from those in the session.You’ll also receive a workbook containing exercises for you to implement all the things you learn during the session.
