Hi Friend,
A reminder!

Some FAQs Q: What if I already started my novel -- but I'm stuck in the middle, will your course help me? A: The "Plan Your Novel" class can help you if you are stuck in what authors often call the "muddy middle" or "muddle middle." When you get to know your characters better, you can design better conflicts for them, and get through the story conflicts of the middle of your book.
Q: Can I join the class on June 1st or soon after? A: Yes, you can. We don't have a registration cut off because we know writers may need to join later in the month. But to get the most out of the class, we recommend joining as close to the beginning of the moth as you can.
Q: Are the weekly calls recorded? I can't make each one. A: Yes, we record all the calls and webinar for access. You have 30 days from when the course ends to download all the June live webinars and calls. (Until July 30, 2015.)
