About Course

From 3rd July to 28th August for 8 weeks. Two hour LIVE sessions on Sundays.

Writing comes naturally to some and is painstakingly difficult for others. What is the difference? How can you transition from one group to the other? This course will help participants make the transition with exercises, challenges, and insights. This is an elaborate course — spanning 2 hour sessions across 8 weeks. Across the sessions participants will write on deadlines, learn to critique, and daydream to compose passages extempore…

Before being an art, writing is a craft. With practice and learnt cues, routines can be built and goals can be chased. With the group, I will introduce ways to do so.

  • Write regularly
  • Chase deadlines and personal goals
  • Peer critique
