Join NY Times bestselling author and MFA instructor Beth Revis for an in-depth look at how story structure works within novels. Beth will go over a detailed examination of the 4-Act Structure for novels with examples from popular literature. Each student will make their own structure chart and get the foundations of a full outline for a novel. By examining the heart of structure, students will also get the chance to develop a pitch specific to their stories, with on-site critiques and an emphasis of what elements to focus on developing to get their stories sold.
