THE WORLD IS WAITING FOR YOUR STORY

There is an entire market of people looking for a story just like yours.

With this course, you’ll learn:

• WEEK ONE: STRUCTURE

  Exploring current structures in essay writing. This is not the five-paragraph essay of your youth!

• WEEK TWO: IMAGE

  Building scenes the reader can live in. Using all the senses - there are more than five!

• WEEK THREE: POINT OF VIEW AND TIME

  We don’t always think (or write) chronologically! Transitional phrases to orient the reader.

• WEEK FOUR: CHARACTER AND VOICE

  Reliability. Likeability. And, a bit of dialogue.

  Come with one idea of what you want to write about - or decide during week one. By the end of week four, you’ll leave with one essay ready to submit and three suggestions of where to send it. Participants will workshop together. 

  After just 4 sessions, you’ll have everything you need to write and market your work.
