Using recently published and award-winning nonfiction, from picture books through YA, we’ll delve into hooks, plot, character development, point of view, and voice. Not all nonfiction books have all of these elements, and we’ll talk about why that is as well as how to use these elements in your writing to create manuscripts that readers won’t want to put down! Webinar registrants will also have the opportunity to submit to Carol for a limited time after the event. Submissions information will be provided in the webinar.
Carol is also offering a limited number of 10-page written nonfiction manuscript critiques following the webinar. (Submission date for critiques will be one week after the webinar to allow participants time to revise using what they have learned.) SOLD OUT
