  2. Narrative Nonfiction Writers Conference

 

 

OBJECTIVES
Many writers don’t know that the difference between
writing nonfiction and writing fiction is mostly the subject
matter. Learning to tell stories, even true stories, through the
lens of fiction writing will improve reader’s engagement and
increase the commercial success of a book. Understanding
the usefulness of narrative plotting is the first step to a great
nonfiction book.

BENEFITS
1. Personalized Feedback
Nothing compares to having someone say, “Hey, this could
be better if you tried doing this.” No one gets better without
someone showing you where your writing needs a little
more work.


2. Group Instruction
As important as understanding technique and the how-to of
writing is, the opportunity to hear other perspectives and
ask questions allows everything the chance to sink in.


3. Tools Needed to Polish MS
Whether your writing your debut book, or your fifth, the best
writers never stop learning how to connect with readers and
make their words shine.
