WRITER’S BLOCK
Other than a few creative writing classes in high school and college, most of what I’ve learned as an author has come from the wisdom of other authors. Many years ago, I was able to attend a writer’s seminar taught by Terry Brooks and it changed my trajectory as an author.
I’ve always enjoyed teaching and developing classes and presentations. One of my bosses at Intel even nicknamed me “The X-Factor” because my presentations were different and I knew all the tricks in PowerPoint.
I regularly teach at writer’s conferences and have made some of the on-line versions of these classes available. To access them, you will need a login and account on my website. You pay for them a la carte.
