Upcoming (Valentine!) Workshop: Love Your Book: Ten Days to Launch, Develop, and Gain Momentum on Your Flash Novel, Novella, or Memoir February 10-21

Love Your Book: 10 Days to Launch, Develop, and Gain Momentum on your Flash Novel, Novella, or Memoir February 10-21

You have a book inside you. It could be your first book or your seventh. It could be a novella-in-flash, a linked collection, a flash memoir, a flash novel or another sort of hybrid form. You love the short prose form, but you’re ready to think bigger–a book, but using the tools of the micro form. 

When a story speaks to us–when it chooses us–we must listen. 

Maybe you’ve already started. Maybe it’s still in your head. Either way, you suspect an untraditional book, using an untraditional structure, might need some unconventional methods. And you are right!

I call this the “flash book” in Going Short, and it is my personal sweet spot; I find the most fulfillment when I’m embracing both the narrow focus of the pieces themselves–the “bricks” of the story—as well as the long-term relationship of building a bigger structure with those bricks. I’ve written four flash novels as well as a linked collection, and since 2015, I’ve been leading groups of writers through the ups and downs of the book-writing process–from the giddy flush of a beginning all the way to the powerful, resonate ending. 

Does this speak to you? If so, join me for a 10-day generative exploration and writing adventure, a “flash flood” with your book or book idea, and gain clarity, momentum, and enthusiasm on both your vision and your next creative steps.

Give yourself the (Valentine’s Day!) gift of 10 days this February to play, experiment, and understand your story more fully, so that you can do the necessary work of bringing it to life!

Join us at the early registration rate of $259 here (regular price $299)

Questions? Feel free to drop me a line. I’d love to work with you and your book!

Finish That Manuscript–Live Q & A call tomorrow!

January 5-February 1, 2015

NEW YEARS RESOLUTION #1: FINISH THAT MANUSCRIPT!

An Online Workshop on Re-visioning, Taking the Next Step, and Falling (Back) in Love with Your Vision.

A 4-week workshop beginning January 5

LIVE 30-min preview call Sunday, January 4 at 7 pm mst
***email me at nancystohlman@gmail.com to register for the preview call

Are you or someone you know working on a manuscript? Are you stuck in the writing phase or in the revision process? Or have you “finished” but not gotten the response you wanted out in the world? Are you not sure what comes next? Most of us are better at starting manuscripts than we are at finishing them. But it’s only when we can conceive, create, and bring our projects to fruition that we begin to master the longer form known as a book. Each book we write brings us closer to understanding how to write a book. What phase of the finishing process are you in? And what do you need to cross the finish line and get it out into the world?

In this workshop we will explore:

• What’s keeping you from finishing?
• Are your challenges telling you something about your manuscript?
• How to fall back in love with your work and your vision
• Allowing your manuscript to transform
• Publication—is your manuscript ready to send into the world?
• The different stages of “finishing” a manuscript
• Self-promotion—are you afraid of rejection? (You’re not alone.)
In this workshop I’ll give you the deadlines you might need, help you structure your writing time into your life, help you transition more easily between creation and revision, and help you become your own best editor. Whether you are planning to submit or self publish, you’ll gain writing, editorial and publication advice, how to find and cultivate a readership, how to excerpt and query, and even when to let a manuscript transform. And most importantly, you’ll finally birth your work and give yourself the satisfaction of completion.

Are you ready?

“Nancy has a way with words, certainly, but she also has a way with people that allows her classes to take on a spirit that exceeds instruction or even guidance. Her consistent support and empathy is tempered with gentle nudges to step out of our comfort zones and approach our work, not with abandon, but with careful attention and encouragement.”
