Adventures in Fiction: Writer's Surgery
Mon 1 Sep 2014 to Tue 1 Sep 2015
An opportunity to discuss your work with an experienced and sympathetic mentor. Suitable for writers at all stages

Adventures in Fiction is now offering structured one-to-one sixty-minute consultations. This is an opportunity to discuss your novel with an experienced professional novelist. The aim is to provide a framework, to identify what you are aiming for and to offer a strategy for moving forward.

These sessions are especially useful for writers in the beginning stages of developing a novel and those preparing for submission and publication.

Marion Urch has over ten years experience of working with writers and has helped many along their journey towards success. She regularly works with literary agents and specialises in the production of an effective submission package, in particular, what makes a good synopsis. She covers commercial and literary fiction, including women’s fiction and thrillers.

Format

We will look at your synopsis and first page in advance and prepare a framework document. The structured sixty-minute sessions are designed to identify and focus on key issues and to allow you to directly address any questions or dilemmas you may have. Topics may include genre, the essential elements of successful fiction, the quality of the writing and the best way to approach agents. The more prepared you are, the more you will benefit. At the end of the session, you take away the framework document as well as any notations on the documents.

Open for bookings now. (One-to-one, in person, or via telephone or skype.)
