Do you have an idea for a novel but aren’t sure where to start? NaNoWriMo might be for you! 

This workshop will touch on strategies for how to develop a story idea, create unique characters, and construct an outline. If comfortable, bring a sample or two of your writing to discuss and evaluate as you strengthen writing skills and learn new resources. Bring something to write with!
