I'll develop artistically and advance my career through revision of a novel, resulting in a submission-ready manuscript to send to agents/publishers. I'll revise and complete a submission-ready manuscript for agents and publishers. Two interim checkpoints will be preparing the manuscript for experienced manuscript editors: first to identify initial concerns, and at the end for final feedback. 2: I'll coordinate a reading, which will be open to the public, with other Minnesota writers who have explored the theme of family in their work. I'll coordinate a reading provisionally entitled FAMILY: LEGACIES AND SECRETS. I'll read from my novel and invite 3-4 other Minnesota writers to join me. This event will be open to the public and conclude with audience questions and discussion.
S.A. Wolter deepened her abilities as a writer through study, generation of new material, and revision, and produced two drafts of her novel. Based on targeted reading, analysis of other writers, working with a mentor, and the experimentation inherent in the drafting and revision of prose, S.A. Wolter produced two substantially different drafts of her novel. 2: S.A. Wolter hosted a reading entitled 'Viewing Events Through Story' and read a novel excerpt. She participated in a 'Grants for Writers' podcast. S.A. Wolter hosted a virtual reading where attendees were able to verbally interact with the readers in a question and answer period or via typed comments that were visible to all. The podcast was recorded and is available on the Internet.
