The Texas Hold 'Em Structure and Other Non-Three-Act Structures with Mia Tsai
In this class, Mia will guide students through the Texas Hold 'Em structure, a four-act based on the poker variant of Texas Hold 'Em. She will also discuss how other non-novel structures can be adapted for novels or short fiction pieces and hold a brief, anything-goes AMA at the end of class. Students are expected to bring a detailed outline of a novel or several short stories to rework and workshop during class. As this is a class on structure, Mia would prefer students to bring novels or short fiction pieces that are already in the editing process but are not yet at the polishing stage because of the heavy developmental nature of the work.
Class will take place virtually April 5 or 6, 2025.
