Get your readers engaged!
Learn the secret to engaging readers with your writing! This six-week interactive class, open to fiction and nonfiction writers, is designed to give you the skills to write rich descriptive sentences and paragraphs that infuse life into your characters and the worlds you create. During this course, you will strengthen your powers of observation through a variety of assigned weekly readings and writing exercises. You’ll also share some of your own writing and enjoy reading the work of other participants. A new lesson will open on Mondays and assignments will be due by the end of each week. After the completion of this course, you’ll have new material that may springboard future stories. Participants should expect to spend 2-4 hours a week on this course.
Learn at your own pace: This workshop will take place over Wet Ink, which is an asynchronous creative writing platform. The instructor will post a lesson and assignment at the beginning of each week, and participants can log in and read the lessons/post assignments/comment on other classmates’ work at their convenience. Shortly before the start date, participants will receive an invite from Wet Ink to create their login info and access the class. Please check your spam if you don’t see it.
