Getting mired in the details when editing? Overfocused on the page-to-page action, rather than the overall arc?  

Learn how unifying concepts can make a novel feel more powerful and give it that sense of completeness—rather than the meandering feeling that leaves the reader wondering what the point of the story was.

Barbara pulls together multiple ways of looking at story structure and other unifying elements, teaching students to look at their work in new ways—which is an absolute gift during the editing process, and an essential skill for the novelist.  Highly recommended!
