All writers benefit from spending time with other writers, and discussing the craft of writing. We had a fun, motivating and informative webinar with our very own Jo-Anne Richards, and associate Michele Rowe.
Michele teaches our screenwriting courses with Richard, and the two of them have just developed a Hero’s Journey course for writers of all persuations.
If you want to hone your craft, do watch this webinar. It’s sure to get you writing!
