Sunday Bones of Story Telling Class

"I'm so happy I signed up for this class. You have blown me away with your enthusiasm and passion. 
Wow, can't wait to dig in and do the work." ~ Michael T. 


Welcome to the page for participants in the Sunday PM, Bones of Storytelling Class.

We are in the midst of taking registration and students for the April class.  If you are signed up, get a jump on this terrific class by taking a look at the books required (one two are required).  They are listed at the bottom of this page.  You can also have a sneak peak by looking at the current class schedule.  

My goal, in this class, is to teach concept, theme, plot, structure and character and for each writer to walk away with a plan for writing their draft.   Everyone who takes this class, loves it.
