Note the Date Change for Emotional Mastery- Continued
Journey with words- Emotional Mastery continued
Last month we began our study of Donald Maass's exceptional book "The Emotional Craft of Fiction." We looked at specific ways to create a powerful emotional experience for our readers. This month, we will continue our study, focusing on stirring higher emotions. Please join us for an interactive workshop and informal discussion on crafting high impact fiction.
Everyone is welcome... from writers to dabblers to anything in between.

Pitching to an Agent or Editor (Part Two)
NY/NJ Chapter Meeting on Pitching to an Agent or Editor
Our April chapter meeting will focus on THE PITCH. Those fifteen minutes or less that we may have to "sell" our manuscript, whether that's to a potential reader, an agent, or a publisher. What do we say? How do we say it? How do we make our story rise above the masses? Come join us for a workshop style session and bring your ideas. If you were here for March, don't forget your One Sheet or Back Cover Blurb to review. Hope to you see you then! (Grace Bible Chapel, 100 Oakdale Road, Chester, NJ)
