Writers Lunch - Reverse Outlines

What's in your head and what made it on the page may not be the full story. If you're in between drafts, it's a good time to take stock of your plot with a reverse outline. Learn how to comb through your draft and find the meat of the story. Did you finish all your subplots, set up big reveals well, create compelling character arcs, and build tension all the way to the climax? Join Shannon for a how-to on reverse outlines.
About Our Host
Shannon’s (she/her) mind is a steel trap, and that’s what makes her so good with continuity edits and shoring up plot holes across all genres. Shannon is a whodunit mastermind who also loves zombies and old-world monsters. Her background in emergency and trauma medicine make her uniquely qualified to help you describe injuries, wounds, and diseases both in a modern setting and in the apocalypse. Shannon has been a professional editor for over a decade and even teaches workshops for the Editorial Freelancers Association to help new editors learn their trade.
Shannon has a penchant for educating her authors, and she likes to provide feedback that helps her authors grow and understand their genre expectations.
When she’s not editing, Shannon writes under a pen name and uses the things that go bump in the night to take the piss out of the patriarchy.
If you’re looking for an editor who can help you be consistent in your complex worldbuilding across an entire series or if you’re a new author who wants a guiding hand, Shannon is the editor for you.
