WOW! Women On Writing
Workshops & Classes
Welcome to our classroom! Whether you are looking to boost your income or work on your craft, we know that education is an important part of a writer’s career. That’s why WOW! handpicks qualified instructors and targeted classes that women writers will benefit from. The instructors are women we’ve worked with on a professional level, and they offer high quality courses on a variety of topics.
How the courses work: All of the courses operate online—whether through email, website, chat room, webinar, or listserv, depending on the instructor’s preferences—and are taught either one-on-one with the instructor or in a peer workshopping environment. The flexibility of the platform allows students to complete assignments on their own time and work at their own pace in the comfort of their own home. It’s a wonderful experience and an excellent way to further develop your skills, or to try your hand at something completely new!
By enrolling in one of our e-courses, you’ll be that much closer to reaching your writing goals.
