Writing Classes
Our TV Writing classes can be taken in any order you like, although there is a suggested sequence based on the student’s experience and skill level. But all four classes have one thing in common: if a student shows up to class online every week and does all of the work, at the end of each eight-week session, he or she will have a packet of material and will know how it can be used in hopes of attracting an agent.
