Format: Intimate Transformative Workshop + 1:1 Hot-Seat Critique (Strictly Capped at 4 Seats)

Stop Wondering If Your Novel’s Foundation Is Solid. Let’s Look Together at Your Story Mechanics Live.

You have a compelling premise and a story idea that won't leave you alone. But before you dive into writing tens of thousands of words—or getting lost in an endless cycle of revisions—you need to know: Does your narrative actually work?

In this high-touch, exclusive intensive workshop, you won't just sit back and watch slides. You will get direct, master’s-level editorial analysis on your actual story premise from Author Accelerator Certified Book Coach Margaret McNellis (MA in English and creative writing and MFA in fiction, author of 4 historical fiction novels).

Together, we’ll examine your Subversive Novel Mini-Blueprint so you can step into your story with absolute clarity, deep protagonist agency, and airtight structural momentum.

How the Intensive Workshop Works:

  1. Step 1: Onboard & Submit (Before the Lab)

    A month before the workshop, you’ll gain access to your private workshop portal, where you’ll complete your Mini-Blueprint (covering your core premise, protagonist misbelief, external friction, and power structures) and submit it for pre-event review.

  2. Step 2: The Live 90-Minute Session

    We gather in an intimate, 4-person virtual container. Following a brief opening craft lesson developed from the group’s Mini-Blueprints, each writer gets dedicated 1:1 hot-seat coaching time based on your individual Mini-Blueprint, in real time.

  3. Step 3: Actionable Next Steps & Full Replay

    You’ll walk away with clear, targeted direction on what to fix before you outline, draft, or revise—plus lifetime access to the live recording so you can rewatch your custom feedback anytime.

Deliverables:

  • Custom Story Surgery: Direct feedback on your protagonist's internal arc, theme, and systemic world friction. I’ll provide in-line feedback on your Mini-Blueprint + the live coaching during the 90-minute session.

  • Logic Leak Elimination: Clear identification of plot holes, passive character traps, or weak narrative stakes before they cost you months of writing time.

  • Collective Insight: Learn exponentially by observing three other serious fiction writers receive live structural critiques.

  • A Risk-Free Upgrade: 100% of your $240 registration fee applies directly toward Plan Your Rebellion (1-Month Blueprint) or a Manuscript Evaluation booked within 30 days following the live workshop.
