Writing Workshop with Dan Manzanares and Doug Kurtz
Join writing coaches Dan Manzanares and Doug Kurtz for an interactive introduction to the Story Map, a visual storytelling framework designed to help novelists and memoirists develop stronger, more impactful books.
Through a live, collaborative exercise, Dan and Doug will demonstrate how the interconnected elements of a story work together, guiding participants from an initial idea to a working draft. By the end of the session, the group will have created a Story Map of its own, offering a practical look at how this approach can bring clarity, focus, and momentum to the writing process.
Whether you’re working on a novel, memoir, or just beginning to explore an idea, this session offers a fresh approach to bringing your story to life.
