If you've been looking for a long term program that will give you accountability, motivation, peer and instructor support as you dive into your novel in the new year, this is the program for you! The Redbud Novel Intensive is a year-long program designed for advanced writers who are ready to make serious progress on a novel project. For 2027, we will select ten students for our cohort, who will go through a year of classes, group work, and one-on-one meetings and manuscript reviews. The year will end with each student having a one-on-one meeting with a literary agent to receive advice about pitching and shaping their project for the marketplace. (Plus...you too will get to told to "act like you're having fun" by Arshia and Emily as they take promo pics of your class. So you definitely don't want to miss out! 😂😂) 📋 The deadline is at 11:59 p.m. on 11:59 p.m. on November 20, 2026.
