Insider's Guide to Writing Serial Fiction

Serial Fiction made a comeback with indie publishing. Readers like reading in segments on their phones or pads if the story holds them.

This workshop covers the techniques that are required in writing successful serial fiction.

Even though serial fiction lost popularity as I came into writing forty years ago, I still loved it and wrote many, many novels in a serial form over the decades, practicing the techniques needed to hold readers from segment to segment in a story.

This workshop keeps the focus on the techniques of writing serial fiction, including what types of story work best in serial form.
