You'll learn to:

• develop an inspired premise that sets your novel apart from the competition
• establish a powerful and sweeping sense of time and place
• create larger-than-life characters that step right off the page
• sustain a high degree of narrative tension from start to finish
• weave sub-plots into the main action for a complex, engrossing story
• explore universal themes that will interest a broad audience of readers.
