writing course


the large publishing house, the one that had the novel contest is starting a virtual writers' course. the curiculum is tailored to each and every writer's needs. 
there will be tasks and lectures on various aspects of writing.
-
the bottom line? is that the course sounded great, but due to the high fee, was out of my reach.
and just guess what happened today?
three writers who took part in the novel contest were selected to enter the course free of any charge.
guess what, i am one of them.
i can't tell you just how excited i am.
-
i will surely let you know about some details as the course commences.

thank you Charles.
i already feel challenged - i hope this course will do me good.
what i like the most about it is that is tailored to one's needs, a specialized course, that is.
more on that later on :)

Yay! Yay ! Yay!
You mean it's based on what they saw from what you've sent them and not just a general course? That's fantastic! Congratulations and best of luck!

that's exactly the case, Vesper. :))

it is a course people pay for. i do not have any spare money for such things, so no matter ow interesting the course sounded, i accepted my situation without any resentment.
boom, comes the news that yes, on the basis of what they had read (Copper Moon) i am one of the selected few.

if you read further on, you may find the news that one of the editors of a really large publishing house suggested Copper Moon to be published on e-book.
