Essentials of Writing to Inspire
Are you inspired to inspire others? The market is ready, even eager, for newcomers who write short and long, fiction and nonfiction, aiming at Christian, Buddhist, Muslim, Jewish, Hindu, nondenominational and New Age markets. You provide the content, and this class will help you mold your ideas with an eye to sell. While inspirational or religious writing brings to bear all the basic principles of secular writing, authors who enter this arena also shoulder a special responsibility in what they convey.

Focus on the Personal/Family Memoir

You’ve collected all the oral history, personal memories, journal entries, photographs, letters and countless other documents. Gain an understanding of the various approaches to personal/family memoir writing and get professional feedback on your specific memoir project.
