Class Experience

US Grade 9 - 12
Intermediate Level
Aspiring writers will be taught how to create compelling characters, fascinating worlds, through a series of mini-lectures and writing exercises. Information will be presented in slide show form, with supplementing docs and videos provided. Each section will break for a discussion, sometimes as an entire class or through ZOOM break rooms. Note that it is unlikely to finish an entire novel in the duration of the class, the intent of the class is set students up to successfully start and complete a novel over time.
