This class is for those who want to push themselves beyond their comfort zone and take their writing to new heights. This novel writing workshop is for budding novelists who are ready for book editing as well as specific feedback on their work from a curated symposium of creative minds (not to mention your venerated instructor, Hollis Gillespie). When you take this online workshop, you won’t just have weekly reading assignments and/or online lectures — you’ll get to expand your writers group and focus solely on completing your novel.

In this course you’ll spend 6 weeks completing your manuscript—all while garnering the valuable feedback, encouragement and ass-kicking necessary to finish writing your novel. You’ll also learn specific tips for outlining and how NOT to write a novel.

Criteria for taking this class:
Just a decent internet connection!
