Happy October everyone! I love to watch the seasons change and fall is one of my favorite times of the year, just because Mother Nature brings vibrant colors that are so darn awesome 🙂 This is also the time for freelancers to take stock and do inventory on their accomplishments and yes, failures, in order to make strategic plans to learn more, grow more and implement better. Knowledge is power and I love learning.
On that note, I’m happy to share information on another upcoming Iowa University’s free fiction writing class. This class, although opened to everyone, is geared specifically toward women stories! Take a look-see 🙂
Registration begins on Oct 11th for Iowa University’s~How Writers Write Fiction 2016: Storied Women. I think these 6-8 week classes are valuable because seasoned writers and newbies get to interact on the class forums, with these alumni professors of writing and teachers who critique your work and offer valuable nuggets to drive your stories to publication. And did I mention that the classes are free?!
Participating writers who take the class are provided class discussions before assignments are handed out and get to share with other writers who become this family of creatives from different areas and stages in their careers. I love this class and recommend it to all who want to up their game. Certifications are available to those wanting to showcase their achievements.
I look forward to seeing you all there. https://novoed.com/how-writers-write-…
As you all know, I will be posting at my sites monthly, preferably on Mondays, but I wanted to get this info out because the time to register is fast approaching and for all of you Johnnie-come-latelys, you can opt to register later, but who wants to be late for an exciting writing class!

Pat, this is a wonderful opportunity for new writers and seasoned folks who want to beef up their women stories or just as a refresher course. For those who might want to extend their course,they will probably have to pay for their enrollment. I’m already enrolled for a second turn here and I’ve not felt shortchanged because it’s free. The courses are full classes and the instructors are amazing! Maybe I can sell a fiction piece geared for the storied woman too!:)
Keep feeling better!
