Do you want to level up your writing skills, but not sure where to start? Oftentimes, we see writing as this inherent talent that only a few people have. 

This could not be further from the case! Writing is highly technical and teachable art. Yet, why is it that so few writers are taught the foundation skills of storytelling and perfecting their craft?

In this class, we will demystify the writing process and give you tangible tools to improve your writing NOW. Specifically, we’ll dissect the art of character and why characters are the driving force of your novel. By the end of this course, you’ll understand how to create a character so compelling that your reader must keep turning the page. 

If you’ve ever wondered why a scene falls flat or why your character lacks presence, this is the class for you. This class is a must for writers who are looking to make their characters pop on page so that the rest of the novel will follow seamlessly.

FAQ

I’ve never written anything before. Should I take this class?
Yes, definitely! This class is really great for beginners and even writers who have been improving their craft for several years. I really try to explain characters from the ground up.

Why should I take the complementary workshop?
I’m a huge believer that workshop is one of the big elevators of craft. Not only will you receive feedback from me, but you’ll be able to read analytically others’ work in a constructive environment. On top of that, it is incredibly useful to pair theory and application on the same topic.
