I’m delighted to be able to offer an updated and expanded version of my popular All You Need is a Six-Pack Workshop through the Romantic Novelists’ Association’s Learning Programme.

This workshop has been given at several Romance Writers of America chapter meetings, including NJRW and BCRW, and at the Romance Writers of Australia conference. Articles on this topic, based on the workshop, have appeared in various RWA chapter and RWAus newsletters.

Baffled by the number of craft books out there? Bewildered by all the different workshops and courses telling you how to write your book? Bothered that you’re doing it wrong? This workshop will help put your mind at ease by showing you how to develop a writer’s tool kit that works for you.

Participants will learn about the various writing processes/styles and be given the opportunity to think about each of the six elements which make up the Six-Pack: Character tool, Plotting tool, Blurb, Idea Generation, Research and Editing/Revising.

This course is uniquely designed to help writers find a path through the crowded forest of courses, workshops and books.

Previous attendees have praised the workshop for giving them the confidence they need to grow and develop as writers. They said it enabled both beginners and inexperienced writers to focus on their own process, the tools that work for them and to think about the tools they might be missing. In addition, they were reassured that they are not alone in being overwhelmed by the wealth of information available or in lacking confidence that we’re ‘doing it right’!

If you’d like to know more about this course and/or to enrol, please click here. Note, you don’t have to be a member of RNA to enrol (though members do get a reduced rate!). You can also check out the other wonderful courses available through this fabulous learning programme.

Hope to see some of you in the virtual classroom!
