“Your Book’s Two Stories”

Wouldn’t you love to write a story that eventually made it to the big screen? Our very own TRISH PERRY will show us how writing your novel as if that were your goal will enhance your storytelling capabilities. An award-winning novelist, Trish has written seven books, including this year’s Unforgettable and Tea for Two. She will talk about how some of the most effective writing coaches talk about novel structure with film in mind. And they emphasize two separate story layers. Trish will define and study the external and internal story layers that will draw your readers in. Visit her online at http://www.trishperry.com/
