We've received word that New York Times-bestselling author Robert Dugoni will be presenting a full-day workshop on November 10 at the Red Lion Inn in Spokane.

A former lawyer, this Seattle-based author of legal thrillers has been compared to John Grisham and Scott Turow. His books include The Conviction, The Jury Master, Wrongful Death, Bodily Harm, Murder OneDamage Control, and a nonfiction book, The Cyanide Canary.

Dugoni's workshop will focus on "a nuts & bolts approach to writing the novel from initial idea to final edit." Topics will include story structure and development, maintaining and increasing suspense, creating memorable characters and dialogue, self-editing methods, pitfalls to avoid, and a discussion of the writer's life and tips for overcoming writer's block. The workshop is open to all writers, from beginners to seasoned novelists and memoirists.

Cost is $100 ($85 for seniors and students). To register e-mail gunnerbob@comcast.net. For more information call Bob Manion at 509-999-4992.
