9-Week Course

The workbook was designed to be a full self-teaching tool. However, some learn better with guidance. We’re offering a nine-week class to provide a deeper learning experience. This class offers:

  • Weekly 40-minute class: Further guidance on the material covered in the workbook and the chance to ask questions about it.
  • Optional weekly writing club: 60 minutes to focus on the writing assignment, ask questions, socialize, and seek further guidance. You will need a discord account to participate.
  • Anthology: Submit the final assignment to be considered for an anthology.
  • Feedback on writing assignments: Brief notes focused on the week’s topic.
  • Certificate of completion*

The course starts August 3rd. You’ll get the workbook as part of the course. If you purchase the workbook separately, it will include a coupon code to deduct it from the course fee. There will be two courses available with 5 seats in each course. Once the cap is reached, a waitlist will be opened. If there is a high enough demand, we may open additional classes.

* This is to signify completion of the class only. It does not signify college credit, accreditation, or a credential.
