Your Story Deserves to Be Seen
FROM THE PAGE TO THE SCREEN: Crafting Visual Stories
START DATE: Tuesday, July 8th @ 7pm, ET. Sign up for this 4-week workshop and discover how-to “write for the camera” while revolutionize your prose writing as well.

You’ll develop a writer’s superpower: the ability to make readers feel like they’re watching your story unfold rather than simply reading about it.
