>Take a Short Story Writing class in 2011!

>

I’ve got a great idea for a Christmas present/New Year’s Resolution for aspiring fiction writers: reserve a spot in my short story class that begins January 10 at Writers on the Net..

Writing the Short Story: Make Your Story Great!” is a 10-week class that combines lecture (an in depth look at story fundamentals as well as study of some classic stories, along with writing exercises) and workshop (each participant will receive detailed comments on one story and one revision from me and all other participants) in a constructive environment for which you never have to leave the house (or get dressed).

Past students have had some nice things to say about the course.

Enrollment is limited, so get your spot now!

Or you might want to take the traditional workshop (no lectures) that begins in March, and you might also be interested in my course on publishing that will kick off later in the spring.
