Face Your Flaws and Level Up
Presented by Kristina Miranda
Breaking through to the next level takes a willingness to face the flaws in your writing head-on. In this workshop, we’ll look closely at three must haves: a remarkable premise, a compelling voice, and excellent structure. After taking inventory of your strengths and weaknesses, we’ll create a plan to help you level up. Bring all or part of a Work in Progress.
Kristina Miranda writes novels about empowered girls in fun situations that usually include a dog or a horse, and a worthy crush. If she’s not writing, she’s probably cheering wildly at a soccer game or taking in a new foster dog. The best job she’s ever had (other than writing) was as a bilingual Spanish/English Immersion teacher for recently immigrated children in San Jose, California. She currently resides in sunny South Florida alongside her human family and a pack of adorable canines.MARCH 21
