August 2025 Meeting & Presentation

EDITING YOUR NOVEL: skeleton blurbs, story arc scenes, and scene blurbs with Brandi Badgett

Brandi Badgett, a wife of a rocket scientist and mother of 5. Plus there’s the cat that allows me to feed him and pet him sometimes. After being a lifelong bibliophile and many failed attempts at writing a book, a few years ago I finally wrote a draft. It was terrible but it was over 50k words. Then I had to figure out what to do with the mess and my friends and family could only take me so far: enter, Fictionary. In my journey of taking classes and asking questions I managed to get my StoryCoach Editor Certification over a year ago. I now do editing, write blogs on story craft, and am a Fictionary Live Instructor. I mostly teach the Editing Part 1: How to edit your novel in 6 weeks and Editing Part 2: How to revise your novel in 6 weeks.

Members Only: We are in the planning stages for an October Retreat. Be sure to come to the meeting and find out more.
