May 2025 Zoom Workshop
How Can I Hook Readers With My Story?
There are many reasons why a reader might put down a book and just as many that keep them engaged and reading way past bedtime. Being immersed in a world populated by dynamic characters forced to take action and make tough decisions keeps readers wanting to find out what happens next. Using polished, consistent, and beautiful language helps readers speed through your book’s pages.
In this free one-hour Zoom session, Developmental Editor Eva Barrows and Copy Editor Lila LaBine will discuss what keeps readers reading and how authors can create unputdownable stories.
