Description

Looking for help with your novel's middle section? While countless craft books offer guidance on crafting gripping openings and satisfying endings, the challenging second act often gets overlooked. In this workshop episode, we dive deep with freelance editor Kristen Tate, author of the new craft book Novel Study, who reveals why middles become "saggy" and explains why so many writers struggle with this section. Whether you're a meticulous outliner or a spontaneous discovery writer, Kristen shares invaluable strategies to keep your story's midsection as compelling as its beginning and end.

Remember, we have a Writers Process meetup every Wednesday. Check us out.
