The Writer's Eye: Editing Like a Writer is a course that will give you a repeatable process for troubleshooting your own written work. Through a ton of writing drills, we'll train your eye in paying attention to the words and sentences that create the reading experience. By the end of class, you'll have practiced spotting what works and what doesn't, understanding why something doesn't work, and identifying what can be done to make it work—transforming that ugly zero draft into polished writing.

Note: This course is part of our Storywriting Skills Series, which is a more advanced set of courses compared to the rest of our offerings. We recommend this series to those who have taken at least one of our Niche or Storywriting Basics Courses. Despite that, we do not impose any pre-requisites for this course, especially if the student decides that this is the class they need.
