There are many different places that offer courses for writers, but which one do you take? They all cost money and you want to get your money�s worth. Which one of them should receive your hard-earned money?

Vance,

Writer2writer is a good site. Cheryl Wright offers free courses, but unfortunately there is no interaction with her during these courses. Unless you opt for the workshop, for which you must pay, you don't have exercises to do, nor do you receive any feedback.

I have taken several different free courses over the past few years. They have all been good, but lacked something since there was no interaction with the tutor. Even my children, who were homeschooled, had interaction with me and their father, as well as other family members, some of whom were involved with the public school system.

I am thinking about doing an article on all of the free courses that are available for aspiring writers. Some of them are better than others and some people are able to learn well enough without any feedback or interaction. Writer2writer will definitely be one of the sites that is mentioned.

Thanks for suggesting this site. If you run across any more that you think are worth checking out, please let me know.

I ran across one last night at Writing Science Fiction and Fantasy. It looks really interesting, so I'm going to dig into it a bit deeper today.

I'd love more info on those sites if you do write an article about it.

The "How to Think Sideways Course" will not be accepting new students for a while after Friday, October 9, at noon. It will open back up again to new students after that, just don't know when. If you sign up before Friday at noon, everything included in the course, including the forums, will still be available to you.

Sign up using this link:
How to Think Sideways

As I mentioned in my article, this is the best fiction writing course I have ever found. Don't lose out on your chance to take this course - it will change forever the way you write.
