Writing the Filmic Novel:  A Workshop with Ellen Meister

For all my writer friends who want film-worthy novels (and c'mon, who doesn't?):  My pal Ellen Meister is leading a workshop on the subject at Hofstra University: Writing the Filmic Novel. Here's the description from the course catalog:

Almost all bestselling novels have one thing in common: a strong narrative thread that plays out like a movie. In this intensive one hour webinar, master storyteller Ellen Meister will show you how to structure your plot in three acts to create a story that will appeal to readers, agents, publishers and maybe even Hollywood. Regardless of your genre, you'll learn tricks for involving the reader in your protagonist's inner and outer journey, building to an exciting climax and delivering an ending that gives the story purpose. This is an invaluable class for any fiction writer who wants their novel to come alive with the kind of "filmic" structure that resonates so powerfully with modern readers.
OFFERED JUNE 5, 7-8 PM Eastern Standard Time
