Does anyone have experience with (frum or frum-oriented) online writing classes? I'm wondering if
- there are any
- how much do they cost
- curriculum
- etc.
Thanks!

| If there isn't one, perhaps we could make a writing group? That could be fun!

| What do you mean by writing classes? I taught writing in school for many years, but somehow I don't think we're on the same page (pun intended.)

My close friend has been running classes IRL like this for years. Want me to ask her to teach it? I won't be insulted if you say no, I promise!!  Or I'll do it. I miss teaching (not grading & not the parents  ) but giving over info & seeing my students develop as writers. Again, if you'd rather not, I am fine with that.

| Ruchama Feuerman used to do phone workshops. I think she might still do them... contact her via her website: http://www.writetogether.typepad.com/

Yes, I took a quick look yesterday. Looks interesting; thanks! Meanwhile, now that I started all this off I probably won't have the time to pursue this for a little bit.
About Ruchama King: she wrote a book based on her writing program. If I owned it I might try to get with it.
Thanks again to everyone. I'd love to keep the discussion going.

| The book is collection of stories from her students with tips from Ruchama King Feurman on different types of writing. Some of the writing/stories are excellent. Worth getting the book. I enjoyed it.

Anyone here write secular fiction?
I have written & published a non-fiction book & articles, but I am now working on the next great novel.
I would love to get a writing group together, any takers???
