Learning creative writing online through scattered Youtube videos and blogs can suck...
No Step-by-Step Guides
Creative writing classes are everywhere, but they are often piecemeal and unfocused.
Without a clear step-by-step path right from how to come up with your original ideas, through drafting, to completing an entire short story, the whole process can feel way too overwhelming, scattered, and time consuming.
This course gives you simple, quick, step-by-step lessons, from idea generation to finished short story.
No Structures or Outlines, Just Loads of Guess Work
74 minute short story gives you a unique story framework that you can use to turn your idea into a fully fleshed out narrative, fast.
Expensive and long as HECK
An undergraduate degree in creative writing in the UK will cost you £27,000 and 3 years of your life.
September 2025 entry tuition fees for a creative writing masters in the UK is £9,188.
Even a basic, self-paced certificate online costs you upwards of £540 and takes more than 3 months for you to complete.
It’s all way too expensive and takes way too long.
With this course you spend less time than going to watch The Naked Gun at the cinema, and for less than the price of two cinema tickets.
No Editing Guidance
Loads of online courses give you a few quick tips about how to write something down, and then leave you with no clear way to polish what you’ve written into a clean, quality piece of work you feel proud of.
If you try to do it on your own, the process of revising and editing can feel daunting and never-ending.
This course gives you the most common things to watch out for and some quick fire actions you can take right away to improve the quality and flow of your writing.
I really like that the videos are quite short—long ones can make me feel a bit intimidated/overwhelmed, so this feels lovely and manageable.
I really appreciate that you explain the reasoning behind things—like the time constraints for the activities. It makes me feel way more involved in the process.
