Meet Emily Stewart in a workshop titled "To a finished first draft and beyond" at 10 a.m. at the Eastern Ontario Writers' Festival. They say writing your first draft is telling yourself the story, so how do you know when you're done? And what do you do after? Emily will start the workshop with a discussion about scrappy first drafts; what they should include, how to finish them, and when to move on. She will then guide participants through the steps of self-revision (chapter breakdowns, draft analysis, and revision blueprints), ending with high-level tips on working with an editor. Great for writers of all levels. To bring: Pen and notebook.
