Story Editing Masterclass

Like every healthy ecology a story needs to work as a whole, not just the sum of its parts. Does your fiction world have a working ecology. Do its parts work together.

Or do its characters overwhelm. Do all parts support each other, or do they each vie for power. How can you see the work afresh.

This course will enable you to become a more effective editor of your own fiction work. It will help you visualise a novel/screenplay/story holistically - as one grand ecology - each element reliant on another. If part of your story doesn't support the life of the whole, out it goes.

So in this course we'll be ambling through the literary Louvre, paying our respects to creative greats like JRR Tolkien, George Lucas, Harper Lee, William Shakespeare and many more. Plenty of courses teach the basics of story writing.
