FREE WORKSHOP: Re-visioning Your Manuscript


When: 6 pm - 8 pm, Friday, October 19, 2012
Where: Mardel's, 5964 Barnes Road, Colorado Springs, CO 80922

You’ve written your first draft. You love your words. Congratulations! After your initial burst of inspiration, who wants to hear, “90% of all good writing is (gasp) re-writing”? 
Sad. But true.  

Great writing is rewriting with know-how. 
Take the fear and frustration out of revising words you love. Do you know where to begin to review and revise your first draft with an agent/editor’s eye so publishers want to read your final draft? 

Scoti Domeij helps writers grasp HOW TO:
  • understand the differences between the multi-stages of the writing process—revision, editing and proofreading.
  • know when to employ revision, editing or proofreading to strengthen your writing.
  • save time rewriting to produce a clearer, convincing manuscript.
  • switch from writer-centered to reader-centered to re-vision or “see again.”
  • rethink and clarify your initial burst of inspiration to ensure your writing voice communicates a persuasive message.

I am so looking forward to this workshop! I am stuck in a quagmire of self doubt and struggling to grasp the vision right now for my story.
