Edumacation for 'Riters


When I was just starting this writing life, I took classes. I bought books, and I took classes. I went to seminars, bought books, and took classes. I... well, you get the picture.

It never hurts to expand your horizons. In fact, I am going to take an online class very soon just to keep my skills brushed up. Gathering info from others who have good ideas for this lonely, writing journey is always a good idea.

Some of my online friendships are from the times I spent expanding my horizons and learning about the craft of writing. My mama always said education is one thing no man can take from you. See? Mama is always right!

If you are interested in taking some classes for a really reasonable fee, check out the place I am planning on taking from.
Workshops

I found out about these from my Facebook friend, Beth Barany. She is teaching the class I am taking in March. Thanks Beth!

Good luck!

So... how were the seminars? :)

Online classes can be really fun. And in the pursuit of enriching your writing, you can also take online classes for other things that interest you and/or may tie in to a book you may or may not be writing. LOL
