Craft a Solid First Draft of Your Novel (virtual classroom)

Award-winning indie author of the Deserted Lands series, Robert L.

Using skills from 25 years as a high school Language Arts/media teacher, 23 years as a semi-pro writer, and self-publisher of four books so far, Rob will share what worked for him, things that didn't, and things to try.
