1. Lorenzo’s Secret Mission - A Lesson in Plotting YOUR Novel!


Lorenzo’s Secret MissionArmed with a long knife, flint-lock musket, and his father’s medical bag, fifteen-year-old Lorenzo Bannister sets off to fulfill his father’s deathbed wish. Lorenzo joins a secret flathoat operation delivering much-needed medicine and gunpowder to George Washington’s army, leading the reader on a romping ride from the docks of New Orleans to the battlefields of the American Revolution. This action-packed historical novel for young people tells the story of Gibson’s Lambs and the Spaniards, forgotten heroes of the struggle for independence.

Wow! How’s that for an exciting plot?

If you’d like to learn how to plot YOUR novel, become a member of the Children’s Writers’ Coaching Club today, then join us Friday afternoon at 3:00 central time when Lila Guzman will use her book Lorenzo’s Secret Mission as the basis for this week’s teleclass for club members.

How do you plot a book? What methods can you use to organize your thoughts? When do you introduce characters? How do you avoid the sagging middle? How do you bring the book to a satisfying conclusion. What are the special problems in writing a sequel?
