  "The Incredible

  Shrinking Story"
  

  Morning Workshop
  

  October 14th 2023

  9:00 am - 12:00 noon
  Open to the Public
  

  Any person under 18 years of age must be accompanied by a parent or guardian to attend this or any other GLVWG event.

  Got a novel?

  Writing a novel?

  Want to write a novel?
  

  Three things are vital to marketing and story development, your synopsis, pitch and logline.  Whether you're looking for an agent, intend to Self-Publish, or have no idea, you need all three.
  

  
  

  Save the date! October 14th for our morning, half-day Zoom workshop with Kathryn Craft on how to get:

  From Novel, to Synopsis to Pitch to Logline!
  

  

  Kathryn Craft
  

  In this morning workshop, Kathryn will talk about how to write a synopsis and shrink that down to a pitch; we'll then work on boiling the pitch down to a logline that begs interest. Zoom breakout rooms will allow participants to pair up and deliver loglines to each other, and receive feedback as to the kind of conflict that might be at the novel's core.

  To get the most out of this workshop, each attendee should bring along their best stab at writing a synopsis and an elevator pitch. Revision is always easier than drafting! (No advance submission necessary.)

  
  

  Admission: $20

  Angel Ackerman and William Prystauk

  will speak to GLVWG about using podcasts to promote your writing. The morning presentation, from 11 a.m. to noon, will feature an interactive discussion on how to find podcasts and how you can use them— for writing advice, for research and for promotion.

  The format of morning and afternoon presentations offer a great introduction to podcasts, so even if you’ve never listened to one consider attending. There is so much information and strategy available for free via podcasts and thinking about interviews and casual conversation for public consumption is a great way to master the key messages you want to convey to anyone about your writing. Practicing this skill set makes you more effective at networking, media relations and public speaking.
