Stop Endlessly Redrafting Your Writing
Having trouble rewriting draft after draft of your book? Whether a novel or a
nonfiction book? Do you write and rewrite reports before presenting them to your
boss? You are not alone. All writers often become so close to their writing that they
cannot see the forest for the trees. This course discusses how you can get distance
from your writing and what to look for when reviewing your drafts. Through class
discussions we will identify helpful practices to follow when reviewing your
writing. We will also review five essentials of good writing that you should check
for in your drafts. You might just discover that you do not have to keep re-writing
again and again. (12 hours) $129
