Idea to Novel to Publish | Ashley C. Harris | TEDxTheBenjaminSchool

Ms. Harris breaks down how to grow an idea from a few notes on paper, into a story outline. From there how to flush out the first draft of a novel without giving up or getting sidetracked. Then the real writing... entering the second and third drafts of the manuscript phase. Finally, how to get a novel into the public's hands with the most reach. Author and film director Ashley C. Harris wrote and directed the teenage film “Lines”. "Lines" was the first feature film in the world captured using only Mac Laptops. In 2013, she teamed up with Barclay Publicity to release the first in a new young adult novel series, “Shock Me”. Ashley then went on to author eight other titles, in multiple genres, as she also worked behind-the-scenes on a morning news show that aired on ABC. In 2014, four of Ashley’s books (SHOCK ME, SPARKS, ONE NIGHT IN, LINES ) landed on the Amazon's Best Selling Top-Ten-List. In 2015, she received her first publishing deal for “Troll”, a KindleScout novel winner. TROLL, which fans call a teenage Game Of Thrones, takes place in both a present-day high school and a magical world of deadly magic. Harris’ second novel in the series, TROLL CRIES, will debut in 2017. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
