I have a hunch these classes are going to be super great!! Wish I was closer... :)
I wish you were too, Julian. I'd love to have you in a class!!
Love it that you are teaching. And especially like that you are having a blogging camp. My novel is about a girl who blogs with her aunt. Sadly, I can't seem to find an agent to take it on. I should send them the link to your camp!
Nice to have you drop by, Barbara. I actually taught a blogging camp last year that went really well. Maybe you could do it yourself as part of your platform. Sounds like a neat idea!
What a great series of classes for writers, Carol. I imagine both the writing classes and the blogging camp will fill right up! Best wishes for success!
Thanks, Clara! I've found that I truly LOVE teaching writing! (Something else you and I share a passion for!)
