Something has gone terribly wrong with this manuscript. Legend has it the draft is cursed—and only a team of sharp-eyed writers can break the spell. In this hands-on, fast-paced workshop, participants will work in small groups to solve a series of editorial “puzzles” designed to rescue a story before time runs out. Equal parts craft lesson, puzzle room, and collaborative chaos, this session transforms the editing process into an adventure. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned writer, you’ll sharpen your editorial instincts, learn how to identify (and fix) common manuscript mishaps, and have more fun editing than you thought possible. Break the curse. Save the story. Escape the draft — if you can.
