About This Workshop
Ever stumble through explaining your latest book or story idea? You won't do that again after learning these practical, hands-on, and imaginative skills to craft your compelling pitch!
Join me, Morgan Lindsay Nelson, for this 10-day session -- you'll come away with a fresh way to communicate your stories straight to your audience, a simple marketing plan, and an inspiring printable to hang in your writing space.
This session is perfect for writers, both aspiring or professional, and everyone who wants to learn to summarize their work in a creative way.
HOW IT WORKS
- Enroll in the class here.
- Every few days, you’ll receive an email outlining your upcoming project assignment...you won't miss a beat!
- Watch the class’s video lessons to learn the skills you need to complete your project.
- Post your project in the class project gallery to get feedback from your classmates. The best learning experience on Skillshare is collaborative so be sure to offer feedback to your classmates regularly as well.
- Have questions along the way? There will be a dedicated questions section in the discussions where I'll be answering any and all questions!
- All students who update their project will also receive personalized feedback from me :)
