VIRTUAL WRITING YOUR BOOK (ADVANCED) DESCRIPTION (Fridays 11:00 a.m.-1:00 p.m EDT): This class is for writers who have at least a partial draft of a book. Participants must have previously taken The Joel Fund’s WRITING YOUR BOOK class or have direct permission from the instructor to attend. If you have been working on a new book (fiction or nonfiction), collection of stories, poetry chapbook, or a drama/screenplay, this class is for you! This class employs advanced writing exercises and mindfulness-based prompts to keep you inspired and on track to either hone and edit your book’s first draft, or make those final touches and start sending out your work to publishers! Offering a safe, supportive online group environment, the class welcomes veterans, current active duty, and reserve members of the armed forces as well as veteran caregivers and immediate adult military family members.

Textbook (TJF provided): Bird by Bird by Anne Lamott
