You are shown how to analyse publishers' requirements and how to structure your novel to meet these requirements. You will also be guided as to themes that should be avoided.
You will study characterisation and plot and be shown how dialogue acts as a driving force in moving your story forward and involving your characters in the action. You will learn to weave subplots into a single structure, how to vary pace and create mood and atmosphere, skills that enable you to write with the page-turning quality that holds your readers' attention.
Two vital parts of the novel are the opening and the ending. One must arouse interest,the other must leave the reader satisfied. You cannot achieve these by accident you need know how.
An important part of the course is the analysis of published fiction to identify its strengths and weaknesses. Seeing theory put into practice in this way brings your teaching alive and is an excellent way to learn. These and other aspects of the novelist's business are fully explored and explained. | |
