Oct 15: Novel Writing for Beginners: Learn how to turn your idea into a published novel with Joy Goddard, one of Canada’s top novelists in the young adult genre.

In partnership with the Quinte Arts Council and supported by the John M. Parrott Art Gallery, Joy is offering a three-part series – take one workshop or take all three!

In this workshop, you’ll cover: Characters; Internal Narratives; Dialogue; Arcs; Scene Structure; Subplots; Point of View; Suspense; Mystery; and Mind Movies.

Up Next - Oct 22: Novel Writing for Beginners Part 3:

In this workshop, you’ll cover the Three Ps of novel writing: Polishing, Publishing and Promoting!

Come prepared to write and be inspired! There will be opportunities for discussion, questions, writing exercises and more.

Each workshop is from 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm, with a short break, and will take place at the Belleville Public Library, 3rd floor meeting room.

Joy Lynn Goddard is one of Canada’s top novelists in the young adult genre. Beginning with the award-winning Daredevils, she hooks readers with characters who are real—the “jock,” the “brain,” the “mean girl”— and with contemporary themes that are important to teens—Internet safety, bullying, peer pressure, dating, mental health. She has also written a middle-grade novel, a picture book and a collection of humourous short stories, with her husband, Dan. A former journalist, she has had numerous articles and short stories published. She divides her time between Guelph and Prince Edward County, Ontario, where she teaches, writes and spends time with her family. Most recently she published Moonshadow (June 2019), a story of love, family and reconciliation. More at https://www.joygoddard.com/
