WC2 Logo Masters Workshops

Masters workshops are half-day, full-day, two-day, and/or on-going  intensive sessions with veteran educators, literary agents, industry experts, and best-selling authors. Locations and tuition fees vary. Classes are limited in size, so you get the maximum benefit. These workshops are a terrific opportunity for writers of novels and short stories  -- both fiction and nonfiction--and/or screenplays to take your writing to the next level and increase the chances for success.

“How to Write a Professional Synopsis for Your Books”

You’ve written your book and now it’s time to debut it to the world. Writing the book itself (either fiction or nonfiction) is one thing but explaining the contents in a compelling and succinct way in a synopsis for an agent or publisher is trickier. This LIVE webinar will discuss the importance of the book synopsis as a tool to present your books to potential agents and editors. Learn the secrets to success from a professional on the inside in this LIVE VIRTUAL Event. Get all your questions answered!
