Creative Writing Courses Nyc
Where can I find the best online creative writing courses?
Where can I find the best online creative writing courses? I live in NYC so which colleges offer the best online creative writing course? If not in a college than where else?
I’m looking for colleges that offer online classes too. I haven’t been too successful partly because they do require some residency requirements & I have some serious health issues that preclude travel. A friend suggested Writer’s Digest online program w/ positive comments. The website is writersonlineworkshops.com. They say you can try any class risk free. @ least you know the reputation of Writer’s Digest is good.
It’s a good question–I intend to follow other answers you may get. Good luck w/ your writing.
