Friday, November 13, 2020 - 12:00pm to 2:00pm
Produced In partnership with the San Francisco Writers Conference.
This event will take place via Zoom - please register via the Register Now button (to your right)
and the Zoom credentials will be sent to you prior to the class.
If you’d like to offer a writing sample (fiction or nonfiction), please submit:
* Five pages (1500 words max) at least a week in advance in this format: MS Word, Times New Roman 12 pt, double-spaced, indented paragraphs.
* A two-paragraph text (the back-cover copy) that is a seductive sales pitch that tells readers what they can expect (the base of all your marketing copy).
* A five-sentence (max) story outline for fiction; or for nonfiction the five most relevant points—assumptions the reader brings, plus what they will learn.
Or if you have questions only about structure or where to begin, send a concise (one-page) outline of what you have and what you’re confused about.
I will focus on the four or five submissions that offer the most instructive and diverse learning for observers. If your piece is not included, I will still try to give some personal feedback at another time.
Please direct questions and submissions to Taryn Edwards, [email protected]
David Colin Carr has been editing and coaching writers of fiction, nonfiction, and memoir for structure, pacing, originality, voice, style, clarity, and linguistic richness for 30 years internationally.
