Telling an interesting story is difficult. But writing an interesting story is thorny and intricate and considerably more complicated.
If you’re eager to learn how to captivate readers with a gripping story, be it narrative nonfiction or fiction, then this class is for you.
I’ve written stories for a decade, and I’ve learned myriad lessons from my many mistakes along the way. I’ve learned how to delight readers with my characters. I’ve learned how to make people yearn for more. I’ve learned what resonates with readers emotionally.
How do I know my words resonate with people? You needn’t take my word for it; you can read what readers have said about my stories. Also read: testimonials from my students.
Most important, I’ve learned my recipe for writing a great story, and I’d like to teach it to you during my two-week class.
It’s worth noting that I teach this class only once a year—in January. Thus, this is the only time it will be offered all year.
