The One Week Writing Workshop is a writing book that actually got me writing, which is the only meaningful test. Karin Adams is warm and practical and clearly experienced — she’s been delivering live versions of this workshop since 2010, and the book has that quality of everything unnecessary stripped away.
The sticky-note storyboard exercise on Day Four is the thing I keep recommending to every writer I know. It’s such a clever physical way to work with your plot — moving scenes around, seeing the shape of the story, rearranging without committing. I’ve done it three times now for different projects.
If you’ve been stuck or intimidated or starting over, this is the book. Clear your writing space, get some sticky notes, and go.
