Three seasons. Ten classes per season. Perfect for all genres.
Actually Writing
with Diana Goetsch
Feeling stuck? Hungry to generate new pages? Actually Writing offers new ways to fill pages, stretch your craft, and restore your love of writing. Perfect for all genres, this course focuses on the essential, yet seldom-taught skills for composing. In each session we practice a particular skill on the spot. (You can view each video as many times as you like.) Downloadable practice sheets then supply examples and prompts, to help you assimilate that skill throughout the week.
People have used Actually Writing to reapproach their practice, maintain a healthy rhythm, or generate a volume of pages. Others have used this course to give themselves an MFA in composing—for a fraction of the cost of a conventional MFA.
Each 10-week season works as a stand-alone class. The focus of Season One is Surprising Yourself on the Page; Season Two: Your Actual Voice; Season Three: Narrative Strategies.
