Finishing School
Dust off your unfinished drafts and turn them into diamonds over the course of this six-week class. Before you even begin, you'll be armed with a developmental edit and an individualized plan detailing the steps to take as you progress on this creative journey. Along the way, you will receive weekly check-ins and coaching to keep you on track. Each week, you will have access to a 60-minute lecture on an aspect of writing including story structure, character development, narrative drive, and more. These lectures will be held on a synchronous remote basis, but they will also be recorded for easy access. Discussion boards offer an interactive component with your fellow writers. The course concludes with a second developmental edit on your finished draft. There are two options for this course: you can either work on two short stories (up to 6,000 words each), or you can submit a novelette-length work (up to 14K).
