This highly interactive class was crafted specifically for the fantasy fiction author. Using a variety of RPG materials such as random tables, story creation decks, and one-shots, the instructor will guide writers through a discovery process during each meeting. This particular class will focus on the required materials listed above but will also include access to non-proprietary PDFs to help you have a broader experience. Additionally, you'll receive a curated list of free resources from the web that are useful for fantasy fiction authors.

Weekly discovery sessions can deepen a work in progress (WIP), take it in new directions, or liberate authors that are stuck. If a writer doesn't have a WIP at the moment, he or she may begin to develop one over the course of the program or write several short stories instead.

During sessions, writers will utilize several minutes of weekly class time to add details and depth to their initial discovery period. After that, the class will share ideas and help each other expand their ideas beyond what any one person would be able to come up with on their own.

Writers will have a space to share their work with other students and offer constructive feedback inside and outside of class. 

No refunds unless the class is canceled. If a student is unable to complete the class for some reason, they will still have access to the videos. :)
