SUMMARY:Novel in Progress June 2023
DESCRIPTION:Invest in yourself and your writing…\nJoin us for what may be the most productive six days of your writing life. \nWriting is hard. Pulling that wonderful story out of your technicolor imagination can be difficult work. Writing takes time\, commitment\, and\, at the heart of it\, a love of the craft. Or at least\, a love of having finished writing. One thing every writer quickly realizes\, though\, writing is a never-ending learning quest. The NIP was developed to be a valued oasis on your journey. \nEach Novel Bookcamp Week Offers 3 Concurrent Programs\, \nEach Designed to Fit Your Level of Need \nBookcamp Workshop \nThe Bookcamp Workshop lets our staff of professional authors\, editors\, and literary agents directly assist you in developing your book-length work-in-progress with classes on craft and technique\, presentations on publishing and insider advice on writing\, one-on-one consultations with our staff\, and opportunities to pitch you WIP to agents and publishers. If you are starting your first book-length project or want to learn more from the experts on how to complete a book\, the Bookcamp is for you. \nWriting Retreat \nOn the other hand\, the Writing Retreat offers you six days of personal writing time to develop a story idea\, crank up the word count\, meet a deadline\, or edit and polish your work before sending it out to an agent or publisher. In addition\, the Retreat offers access to various presentations you may wish to sit in on\, with an experienced writing mentor who can answer your questions\, brainstorm ideas\, help you unravel knotty plot problems\, and gently encourage you to stay focused on your WIP. All within a writing-oriented environment surrounded by fellow writers. If you feel you need writing time more than instruction\, the Writing Retreat awaits. \nBook Coach \nThe Novel Bookcamp Book Coach Program is intended for experienced writers looking for a thorough\, developmental review of their work before they submit their manuscripts to Publishers or Literary Agents. Our Book Coach is a published multi-genre novelist with experience as an editor\, publisher\, and writing/book adviser. This program is limited to 4 writers per Bookcamp Week whose applications are accepted by the Bookcamp Staff with final approval by the Book Coach. Once accepted into the program\, writers are strongly advised not to revise their work further until after attending their Bookcamp Week to avoid confusion.

SUMMARY:Book Launch
DESCRIPTION:Troy Story by Carla Luna \nMay 23\, 2023 \n \n  \n  \nTroy Story is the second book in Carla Luna’s series\, Romancing the Ruins. It’s another archaeological romcom that readers will really dig. We’re officially introduced to Dusty Danforth\, an incredibly likable heroine. She’s challenged with an intimidating mother\, a hot summer in Turkey and an even hotter best friend\, Stuart Carlson. \nWhile Dusty’s searching for her dissertation topic\, she’s resolute in facing her feelings for her friend Stuart. Spending this summer on another archeological expedition gives Dusty the perfect opportunity to accomplish both of her dilemmas. \nBoth having parents deep in academics and archeology\, Dusty and Stuart have romped around the world and together learned how to survive with a constantly changing home full of unearthed treasures. Dusty grew up appreciating always winging it\, while Stuart needed to be grounded. \n  \nIn his newly minted university position as an assistant excavation director\, Stuart heads to the legendary city of Troy in Canakkale\, Turkey. He faces monumental pressure as he’s saddled with working for Professor Rutherford Hughes. A controversial academic with a shady past. Having his good friend Dusty along with him on the dig eases his concerns and will make the job easier. Especially since his trust in her runs deep. Except his feelings are deeper and this time he may need to unearth that truth. \nAt the dig\, a team of students and professors gather for the project. The familiar face of TJ Mayer appears and a new face\, Emilia Flores joins the site. Mortimer Jones is a wannabe archeologist and with his daughter Clarissa\, they make this dig even more fun. The smarmy Dr. Hughes needs a big win and when “Operation Odysseus” goes awry\, his dirt is exposed. Leaving Dusty and Stuart to pick up his mess without jeopardizing their careers. \nA delicious assortment of mouth-watering mezes are spread out throughout the story. They will inspire your taste buds and readers may find themselves craving some baklava. \nWith the Iliad\, Trojan War and Greek Gods hovering around the site – this friendship with Dusty and Stuart heats up. They discover their friendship isn’t a zone but a solid base for a loving relationship. \nI was lucky enough to get an early copy. Readers\, this friends to lovers story is a gem so don’t let it get buried in your TBR pile. Troy Story will be available May 23rd and if you haven’t already\, pick up the first book in the series\, Field Rules. \nTQAL \n  \n  \n  \n
