Instructor Meg Eden Kuyatt is the author of the 2021 Towson Prize for Literature winning poetry collection Drowning in the Floating World and children’s novels including a 2023 ALA Schneider Family Book Award Honor Good Different, and the forthcoming The Girl in the Wall (Scholastic, 2025).

Once you've written a draft, it can be difficult to figure out where to go next. A range of people will provide feedback, but who is right? How do you go about discerning what to edit and what to keep the same?

To effectively edit, it’s critical to identify a novel’s underlying argument—it’s heart. In this workshop, we’ll discuss the “thesis statement” approach to editing, looking at examples of novels’ “thesis statements,” as well as providing exercises to help you identify and hone in on your novel’s thesis.

  • You want to revise your novel but don’t know where to start.
