Master Fiction Writing Class

We take a break from our weekly scheduled program (aka ranting and raving about Ships, Secrets, and Survivors, which publishes NEXT WEEK) to bring you some information about a super awesome ONLINE writing class!!

The Master Fiction Writing Class.

This is brought to you by the folks of Write2Ignite (a writer's conference that I go to and highly recommend). The Write2Ignite (W2I) Planning Team believes that God’s direction for W2I in 2020 involves making some changes in methods and programs. We believe these changes will enable W2I to continue providing Christian writers of children’s and young adult literature with the following:

-Instruction

-Inspiration

-Encouragement

-Challenges

-Community

Our focus is still on those who write for youth.

Our foundation is still Christ.

Our new format provides one-day Master Class workshops designed to help writers build specific skills. If taking your writing to higher levels is your goal, you will benefit from these Master Class features:

-Instruction by master authors

-Hands-on practice of new writing skills

-Immediate feedback

The first Write2Ignite Master Class for Christian Writers of Children’s and Young Adult Literature will be held Saturday, September 19, 2020 is virtual and will feature award-winning author Joyce Moyer Hostetter. The cost is just $79 USD. 

You may be thinking …

Master classes? I’m not a master. I’m not ready for a master class! Oh, yes, you are!

W2I Master Classes are focused, in-person classes taught by master authors and teachers designed to help writers who want to become masters at writing for children and young adults.

We’ve included plenty of hands-on time for practicing your new and improved skills, complete with immediate feedback. Our focus for W2I Master Classes is honing your writing skills. No marketing. No social media. No agents or editors. And only $79 for the full day.

We hope you’ll join us for this year’s Master Class from the comfort of your home on Zoom. I personally would be going, except I am managing a Ride and Tie race the following week and will be crazy the week before (week of this writing class) getting the trails ready...

But hopefully others will be able to attend and benefit from it. :)
