Are you yearning to take your fiction writing to the next level? Are you only at the beginning of your career? Are you seasoned, even published, but….?
You're frustrated because...
-
You’ve more than taken the leap and have dedicated time to write on a steady basis, but now you're stuck
-
Your outlines are stiff and confining
You're not sure what kind of fiction you want to write: Genre vs Literary Mainstream Fiction, Short Story vs Long Form
-
Endless notes leave you swimming in the deep end
-
You're frustrated with your material and yearning for a reliable, reproducible way to "set up" your book(s), which will serve as the launching pad for your writing?
You're wondering if it's worth it
I get it.
I relate!
During many years of being a freelance writer, editor, and instructor, I’ve had seasons where I’ve struggled with the same problems you have and have even gone dormant with my own creativity.
These struggles led me (and my students and clients) to craft real-time solutions.
I’ve originated a number of tools for myself and hundreds of writers to bring their creative dreams into reality.
I’ve used these tools myself and enjoyed the tremendous benefits they bring to writers I work with at every level!
Imagine what it would feel like to...
INSPIRATION
Learn how to use your blazing imagination
to shape your ideas into form
APPLICATION
Use your new, unfailing tools to grow your book
REALIZATION
Re-iterate your book ideas into the finished design you've dreamt of
All without feeling ungrounded, without imitating others’ structures, without the rigid box of outlines
*This is a unique and proven course offering you a clear path to your book design

INTRODUCTION: Are you lost? blocked? or not sure where to begin with writing the Fiction you long to create? Would you like to have a mentor, guide, teacher, or coach? Have you been 'burned' or disappointed by so-called writing coaches before? Are you looking for a writing coach you can trust?
My Introduction will help you get to know me and what I have to offer you!
Session 1: The Protagonist
Who are The Main Characters in your book (or short story) and how do they become the driving forces of your story, especially in Literary Mainstream Fiction? In this First Session, we focus on The Protagonist, who leads the story arc, and the three essential requirements they must have.
Session 2: The Antagonist
Who is the "foe" of your Protagonist, the second of the Main Characters in your story? The Antagonist is the character who will initiate and build up the challenges and obstacles that The Protagonist must face. Like The Protagonist, The Antagonist has three essential requirements, as well as the fatal flaw that can defeat her or him.
Session 3: The Love Interest(s)
Did you know that love interest(s) are optional?
So why do we include them in our fiction work? In this session, we'll discover how they add depth, greater involvement for the reader: intrigue, mystery, while complicating the lives (as they do in true life) of The Protagonist and The Antagonist with whom they are aligned.
Session 4: The Supporting Characters
How do your Main Characters get the support they need in their individual quests? Session Four reveals the role and power of Supporting Characters:
Catalyst Characters are those who help "make things happen" in juicy, catalytic, and active ways.
Helper Characters are "sidekicks." They may assist any of the other characters with whom they are aligned.
Session 5: Story Elements (a) (b)
Session Five delves into the Basic Five Story Elements that add vital layers and textures to the life of your fiction book: WHO, WHAT, WHERE (and WHEN), WHAT, and WHY.
Session 6: Advanced Story Elements
Of the many possibilities of advanced story elements, there are three that you cannot do without! Find them here and enrich your work into an engrossing fiction that will profoundly engage our readers: Point of View, Tone, and Style.
"The Necklace Metaphor" worksheets give you a dynamic visual map
for your fiction.

Gwyn answers the 8 biggest questions you might still have!

Before you go...
If there's one thing I want you to remember, it's this:
Trust your heart's desire!
I understand doubts! I understand time constraints: jobs family, life necessities. My mother was a many times published author, who always cautioned me that while I needed "to have something of my own" also said, "You'll never make any money as a writer." There are many such echoes in all our heads.The answers to those voices are: "My voice DOES matter! I have something meaningful I need to say!" and "This is valuable to me and helpful to others!" Even if you second guess yourself, let's brave this together. I will help you succeed.
If you're worried you're not ready yet, or still aren't 100% convinced that "Designing Your Fiction Work" is the perfect fit - reach out to me at drgwynerwin@gmail.com
I'll be totally honest about whether I think this program will help you with realizing your dreams!
You've got everything to gain!
