Save Our Heritage Organisation and History Matters Foundation present Lessons from a Bestseller; a writers workshop featuring international and New York Times best selling author Steve Berry, in conjunction with the national book launch of his latest novel, The Columbus Affair, followed by a reception at the Marston House.
This is a unique opportunity to meet the author in person, learn from his struggles and long road to publication, hear about how history inspires his writing, and be the very first to purchase your copy of The Columbus Affair and have him sign it personally at the reception.
About the Workshop & Book Launch
In the four-hour workshop Steve Berry will pass on valuable information and insight to writers of all levels of ability, including:
The Four "C's" of Writing - How to structure books for maximum impact.
Point of View and Dialog - How much dialog should there be, and how it should be included.
10 Rules of Writing - The rules Steve learned during his early years that give writers the basic information they will need to craft their own story.
The Business of Publishing - International Thriller Writers' Executive Director Elizabeth Berry joins Steve to explain how to sell your work, including agents, editors and publishers.
Steve will also discuss his newest novel, The Columbus Affair and the importance of historic preservation for the writing community.
About the Author
New York Times bestselling author of ten historical thrillers, with 14 million books in print and translated into 51 languages, there is a common thread woven through Steve Berry's work. Something from the past has been lost, forgotten, or is in peril. But these relics of the past continue to have great importance in the modern world.
Berry has helped the historic preservation efforts of the Smithsonian Institution Libraries, the Mark Twain House & Museum, the National Trust for Historic Preservation, the Connecticut Historical Society, the Preservation League of New York State, and many more.
Book Launch Reception
An evening reception with hor d'oeuvres and wine begins at 6pm, followed by a talk featuring Berry's well-known wit and historical insight at 7pm. Books will be available for signing. A tour of the Marston House Museum is included before the reception.
