Review and Editing Discussions

 

Hello everyone, I've been AWOL traveling, but would now like to invite everyone to an editing session this Wednesday November 16th at Full Circle Bookstore between 1:00 and 3:00.  Our usual activity is to bring several chapters, exchange, and provide comments.  Grammar and wordsmith edits occur, but the focus is usually on the writing craft: character development, balance in the use of dialogue, exposition, and other narrative techniques.  We talk about action and pacing of the plot.  All critical discussion of technique and style are encouraged, we sidetrack often into discussions of theme, mood, and symbolism.  The focus is usually not on back slapping encouragement, but what we see my might not be working or might not be up to its full potential.

 If you have any questions please send me an email, we’re not hard to find at the bookstore, look for people with loose leaf manuscript parts and friendly smiles.

 

Yours, Randy
