About the Class

Who are you writing for?

Is it yourself? Your family? A limited audience in your community, if not selling your work on Amazon?

If you are writing for yourself, you probably don’t need to worry about the details. If you hope someone else will read it, maybe your grandchildren, maybe a total stranger, don’t you hope they will find it engaging?

Following an outline is a very good way to make what you write more enjoyable to the average reader. Especially if you want them to read it all the way to the end.

Many people say they are pantsers: this means that they believe they sit down and the words just flow out of them. The assumption here is that they do not plan what they are writing, it just happens.

In my experience, this is somewhat true of almost everyone, but it’s also a false statement.
Because most people are thinking about a project for months, if not years, before they sit down to write. To me, any mental work you put forth is outlining.

In this class, we’re going to show you how to outline your story to create a more engaging read.
