Ask and you shall receive!<\/p>\n

Ahem...Announcing the very first SAVE THE CAT! Novel-Writing Workshop in AUSTIN!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The workshop will take place on the weekend of April 14th and 15th, 2012.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

All the details, including price and how to register, can be found by clicking here!<\/a><\/p>\n

In case you’re new to all this, here’s my “spiel” about the SAVE THE CAT! method and the class:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Basically I owe my entire novel-writing career to\u00a0Save the Cat!<\/a>\u00a0A book series by the genius\u00a0Blake Snyder\u00a0<\/a>about how to outline any story in the world. He calls his trusty \u201cformula,\u201d the \u201cBlake Snyder Beat Sheet\u201d, and it consists of 15 \u201cbeats\u201d (or story points) that fit into pretty much any movie ever made. And I\u2019ve adapted them to novels to help me outline all my books. Since starting to use the Blake Snyder Beat Sheet, I\u2019ve sold nine novels. Yep\u2026NINE! I don\u2019t think that\u2019s a coincidence! Now, I never start writing another book until I\u2019ve got my trusted 15 beats in place.<\/p>\n

And during this two-day workshop, I\u2019m going to teach you exactly how I do it!<\/p>\n

Basically it works like this: you come to the workshop with an idea for your next novel (all genres welcome!), the group \u00a0spends the next two days working through the 15 beats of each of your ideas, and by the end of the weekend, you have a sturdy (unbeat<\/em>able!) outline to start writing your book with!<\/p>\n

Space is extremely limited. There are only EIGHT spots open for this class. So ACT FAST!<\/p>\n

Hope to see you there, Texans!<\/p>\n

Happy writing!<\/p>\n
