Novel Writing with Lisa Lickel

Lisa Lickel, author/editor, book coach, and outgoing manager of WWA Press, is leading a six-session series for novel writers who have a manuscript in progress and have some experience working with others in critique groups. Besides questions that naturally come up during our sessions, Lisa will also focus on aspects that are genre and craft specific as they arise. Lisa will provide critiques of the work and facilitate discussions. Lisa will read up to 200 pp of your manuscript in progress and provide analysis. Requirements: Before signing up, writers should prepare or be able to prepare a minimum one-page synopsis (a complete overview of your work, with ideas of progress if the manuscript is incomplete), and have at least 6 sessions of material available, per your genre (generally five-twelve pages for each of the six sessions).

From Lisa:

"By working together, writers have the opportunity to gather the insights of their peers and learn to distill advice and opinions in a small group environment. Sharing feedback is a great way for us to learn and grow in our craft, to ask those questions that might feel awkward elsewhere, and to support and encourage each other. WWA wants to be part of your journey to success."

The way it works: Participants will email their pages to the other group members at least one week prior to the session so that each participant may review and prepare critiques for their fellow writers and be ready to discuss on meeting day. During the session each writer will read from their submission and hear constructive advice from peers and facilitator Lisa Lickel. Participants will provide their feedback to their peers following the session.
