Uploaded November 2024 | Updated September 2026, 2 weeks ago

Looking for a writing course? Cece Lyra is a literary agent and a host of the podcast The Shit No One Tells You About Writing. I adore her webinar classes, so I've put together a review of her writing courses so you can decide if they are right for you!

She has offered masterclasses on: tension, interiority, emotionality, writing on a line level, first pages, and has more to come in 2025.

(Obviously not affiliated with Cece - she's just that good).
