Novelists Roundtable

A brand new concept!

The Novelists Roundtable is for StoryStudio Members who are currently working their way through a novel or are contemplating beginning one.

It’s not a class and it’s not a workshop. It’s an ongoing discussion where the participants share information, ideas and help one another to meet the difficult challenges of completing a novel.

Each month we’ll have a different topic to discuss and some guest writers will meet with us to share their wisdom. Essays about writing and personal writing goals will spark discussion. We’ll even assign you a writing buddy to check in with and rally you forward in-between meetings.

This unique group is open only to StoryStudio Members.

NOTE: There is a limit of 12 members and admission is on a rolling basis when space is available.

For more information, please contact Jill at jill@storystudiochicago.com or by calling 773.477.7710.

Possible 2008-09 Topics are: Goals, Challenges, Time and Structure, Character Challenges, Revisions vs. Moving Forward, Using Time, “This isn’t Working!” Thickening the Plot, Revisions and editing, Marketing Ourselves and Our Work.
