Course Description: Many people aspire to write a novel and few ever complete one. In this class, students will write the first three chapters of a romance novel and create a roadmap for completing and publishing it. This process includes writing a summary and a query letter as well as exploring the genre and paths to publication. We’ll look at the structure of romance novels, read samples, chat with industry professionals, and watch clips from movies. Students should come to class ready to write!
