Have you ever considered publishing a workbook? Do you have a clear understanding of what the main plot points that make up a plot are? Are you using them effectively in your novel? 

In this fourth episode of the HYBRID Author podcast, host Joanne Morrell, children’s and young adult fiction writer and author of short nonfiction for authors, interviews Rebecca Laffar-Smith. 

Rebecca gave up a successful career writing about the non-fiction world in favour of fantastical creatures and the fanciful things she could create and immortalise in fiction. Now she writes full-time whilst homeschooling her Autistic son, raising her creative daughter, and offering coaching, mentorship, and events within her writing community. Rebecca's Plot Storming Workbook helps writers define their story's structure, use the Hero's Journey effectively and provides context to develop their characters.
