I think all writers can agree that plots are tricky. You plan them one way and they veer another, or you don’t even know how to plan them out in the first place. Whatever the case, plot stumps us all at one point or another.

That’s why I’m so thrilled about the Escape the Plot Forest summit running Saturday through Wednesday! With 37 speakers and 44 sessions over five days, this summit is packed full of all the plot help you can imagine from successful authors, including how to create a memorable story and how to craft the opening pages of your book.

I know it’s a busy time of year, but taking advantage of free opportunities like this is so important to your growth as a writer. Even if you can’t attend every session or only attend one, I can guarantee you’ll get something out of it!

If you’re interested, you can sign up here using my shiny new affiliate link. There are free and paid tickets and, like usual, I just opted for the free one (I may have gone a little overboard on the grocery budget this month…) But maybe the paid ticket is calling to you, and it’s always a great option when it comes to events run by Daniel David Wallace; he always adds lots of great perks! (And if you upgrade your ticket after using the above link, I get a small commission!)

I hope to see you at the plot summit on Saturday!

Happy writing!
