Join us for our 6th annual Pencil to Paper on-line craft workshop series.
This class series is geared toward the writer just beginning a work, just finishing, or somewhere in the middle. Together we’ll find ways to tighten your prose, sharpen your story-telling skills, and getting that manuscript to the finish line. Have you ever wondered why your story sags in the middle, takes a while to start, or misses a satisfying ending? This year’s Pencil to Paper will deal with STRUCTURE AND POINT OF VIEW, two reasons that weaken your manuscript unless executed with precision.
Learn how to choose the best character to tell your story, how to manage multiple points of view, and how to know when it’s not a good idea.
Thursdays, 12:00 to 2:00 p.m. CST, January 8 to February 12, 2026, via ZOOM (Classes are recorded if unable to attend live) Cost: $240.
