The magic of good storytelling isn’t magic at all. It’s about digging deep and staying authentic. It’s hard work and it’s thrilling.<\/p>\n

In this course you will learn the basics of compelling storytelling: knowing how to communicate and listen on the deepest levels; character development, crafting cinematic scenes with mood, detail, description and dialogue. Ultimately, you will learn to trust your \u201cvoice\u201d which sounds confusing but is simply letting your words and thoughts spill out onto the page in the way you think and speak.<\/p>\n

Whether you are a novice or an advanced writer who is pursuing the never-ending process of honing your skills, this is a course for you.<\/p>\n

Course texts: Stephen King’s “On Writing” – Joan Didion’s “Year of Magical Thinking”<\/p>\n
