What It Takes to Write a Book

Have a book idea that just won’t go away? Come to the Gates Mills Branch Library for this three-week class (Tuesdays August 7, 14, 21) that will get you started, whether you want to write a nonfiction book, novel or memoir. 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! Tips will include scheduling 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 and author of three books. She is also the coordinator of the Western Reserve Writers Conference and an instructor at Lakeland Community College. You are committing to attending three Tuesday sessions. Please do not register if you cannot attend all of the sessions. Class limit of 15. Registration required for this free program series (440-423-4808).
