Happy New Year!
Course AnnouncementsHello Reader, Welcome to the first courses newsletter for 2024! First of all, on Jan 17, 2024 (yes, writing that "4" still feels bizarre), I'm cohosting a free webinar with Claire Cronshaw of Cherry Edits. The webinar is called Is Your Novel Editor-Ready? I know this is often a sticking point for authors, especially new authors. Editing is a big investment and you want to be sure your novel is ready for editing. This webinar will offer some pointers and give you tips on what to do if your novel's not quite there yet. Finally, we still have spaces available on the Storytelling for Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers course, which starts at the end of the month. So if you've resolved to prioritize your writing and make progress on your novel this year, this course would start the year off nicely! If you're not sure about the course, why not give the webinar a go, to get a sense of what working with us would be like? Hope to see you there. Have a great month of writing!
