On August 13th, 7:00-9:30pm CST, I’m teaching an online class through The Writing Barn for people getting started with science fiction short stories. We’ll be talking about elements of craft, as well as how to publish your work. If you are an early career writer of SF, consider signing up!
I’m teaching another class for The Writing Barn. This one will be a six week writing workshop for science fiction and fantasy. It runs weekly from March 21 through April 25. Here’s the description:
Are you a writer who dreams of other worlds? Fantasy and science fiction stories let us leave realism behind to explore new viewpoints and experiences. They offer storytelling tools to match the infinite possibilities of the imagination. Learn how to use those tools in this six-week course, where author and educator Eugene Fischer will lead students in workshopping stories and examining the mechanics of genre. Whether you’re just getting started or polishing work for publication, this class will help you bring your worlds to life.
If you want to be one of the fifteen students workshopping with me in the spring of 2019, you can sign up here.
On September 13 at 7:00 pm CST I’ll be teaching an online class on writing and selling short science fiction for The Writing Barn. This is a course for writers new to science fiction publishing, and will examine topics of both craft and commerce. If that sounds up your alley, click through and sign up!
