Writers, don’t miss Meghan Pinson’s Feb. 3 workshop on “Novel Revision
101: DIY and Collaborative Revision.” Held from 10 a.m. to noon at The Lodge
Des Peres, 1050 Des Peres Rd., St. Louis, MO 63131, it is free to St. Louis Writers Guild members; $5
for nonmembers.
“In this two-hour workshop, you'll draft a plan to get your novel
from first draft to finished manuscript. We'll break down the stages of
revision and editing and look at how fear, avoidance, and pride are your worst
enemies,” Meghan said. “I'll teach you how to know when to get help, where to
find it, and what to expect from it. You'll leave with an editing schedule that
starts with you and expands to include critique groups, professionals, and beta
readers.”
Meghan Pinson provides expert editing, engaging critique, and
fearless consulting to authors of novels and nonfiction manuscripts. She
