Join award-winning and best-selling author Graeme Simsion for a three hour writing seminar at the State Library of Western Australia.

Graeme Simsion is a bestselling novelist, popular seminar leader and author of The Novel Project: A Step by Step Guide to your Novel, Memoir or Biography and The Rosie Project.

In his seminar, Graeme will cover the end-to-end process of writing, from premise to proofreading, as described in The Novel Project.

Participants will learn:

How to plan the writing process, so they start every day knowing what to do it and how to do it, with confidence that they’re making progress towards a completed manuscript
How to take control of their creativity
How to create credible, complex characters
How to structure their novel using proven storytelling principles
How to deal with crises and problems, including writer’s block
How to work with beta readers and editors

Tea and biscuits will be provided, and there will be book sales and signings after the event.
