What It Takes to Write a Book

Have a book idea that just won't go away? This three-week class will get you started, whether you want to write a nonfiction book, novel or memoir. This class meets on three consecutive Monday evenings: October 8, 15 and 22 and you must attend all three. From expanding your idea, to organizing chapters, to finding a publisher, author Deanna Adams will answer your questions and get you ready to write that book at the Chagrin Falls Branch Library! Tips will include how to schedule your time to work on your book, deciding who your audience is, and building your book from proposal to finished manuscript. The only requirement -- you must have a concrete book idea. Bring a two-page sample of the idea or another sample of your writing to the first class. Deanna Adams is a freelance writer, award-winning essayist, author of three books, and has just completed her first novel. She is also the coordinator of the Western Reserve Writers Conference and an instructor at Lakeland Community College. Registration required for this free program as seats are limited (440-247-3556).
