SUMMARY:Strong Beginnings: Workshop for Novelists
DESCRIPTION:Agents and editors look for any reason to toss a manuscrip
 t into the rejection pile, so it is crucial to make a good impression 
 in the first five pages. Mistakes include starting the story in the wr
 ong place, or using an action scene that serves no purpose. We will do
  close readings of first chapters of published books to determine what
  makes them successful. We’ll also analyze the first five pages of s
 tudents’ novels to see what works and what doesn’t. You will learn
  techniques that you’ll be able to apply throughout your novel. Wend
 y Nelson Tokunaga is the author of Midori by Moonlight and Love in Tra
 nslation.\n\nFor more information visit http://www.shewrites.com/event
