Storywriting School
We welcome anyone who wants to learn how to write stories—no magical talent, prior training, or writing experience required.
A step-by-step approach
We'll teach you how to build stories in steps and stages that you'll be able to replicate outside of class.
Learning by doing
What better way to learn writing than by, you guessed it, writing! Our classes include lectures, but you'll be doing writing exercises for the most part.
Concrete learning outcomes
Each course has specific target outputs or skills that you'll attain after having done all the required exercises.
Please refer to the course description for the learning outcomes of each course.
