Write Your Draft course ONLINE
An 8-week online creative writing course for ideas that deserve to become something more.
Write your Draft is an 8-week course designed to help you turn loose ideas into a clear, compelling narrative. Whether you’re starting from scattered notes or a strong concept that’s lost its way, this course gives you the structure, support, and creative momentum to move forward.
Each week, we’ll focus on a key element of storytelling, through practical exercises and targeted prompts that build toward your own piece of writing. You won’t just learn theory; you’ll actively shape your story in real time.
You’ll be part of a supportive group of writers who are in the same place as you: figuring it out as they go. By the end of the eight weeks, you won’t just have ideas anymore—you’ll have a story that is beginning to exist on the page, along with the tools and confidence to keep going.
This course is for you if:
- You have an idea but don’t know how to develop it
- You’ve started writing but feel stuck or unsure where to go next
- You want structure, guidance, and deadlines that actually help
- You’d benefit from a creative community
- You are writing anything with a strong narrative arc: plays, novels, memoir, film scripts

You must have access to an internet connection and device that can support zoom. This is for the most part a ‘cameras on’ course, to maintain the feel of a live class. This course is open to any level of experience, and is mostly focused on getting a messy first draft onto the page.
