I don’t usually do stuff like this, but this course just sounds too cool to not tell you about! (course starts April 12th)
The Handmade Writer is an e-course taught by Amy Spencer of Bring Yourself. I do not really consider myself a writer, but then I have to remind myself that writing a blog post is certainly writing. And an Etsy listing, or even a tweet! If you are thinking of starting a blog, looking for tips on making your writing more expressive, or are just interested in honing your writing skills, I highly recommend you look into this course.
From the Bring Yourself website description of the Handmade Writer:
“Take a crafty approach to creative writing and use the fabric of your life to tell your own extraordinary stories.
“The Handmade Writer e-course will help you gather together material from every source imaginable. You will learn about the craft of writing and how to sew these fragments together to build your own pieces of creative writing. The e-course has been inspired by the strength of craft communities as well as the impulse to transform everyday finds into something amazing.
“…Handmade Writer is the ideal place to take your writing a bit more seriously and will give you the motivation to find space for it in your busy life. By taking a crafty approach, you will start using material from your world to inspire your writing. You will be amazed by what you can achieve and at the end of the six weeks you will want to keep on writing.”
Sounds kinda great, eh?
(Would love to hear if you sign up and how it goes!)
