Kate Cavanaugh Writes | How to craft your own writing semester! 📝 syllabi, themed checklists, subgoals, & more! @KateCavanaugh | Uploaded August 2024 | Updated October 2024, 11 hours ago.
It's that time of year again! Last summer I attempted my very first "writing semester." I've learned a lot since then and am ready to tackle Fall with three new classes: Fun(ctional) First Lines, Bettering for Betas, & Back Matter Matters. Here's how I came up with my main goal, subgoals, syllabi, checklists, and more.
0:00 Back to school season, y'all!
1:14 How to choose your "classes," some examples, and what I'm "taking" this Fall!
4:37 Main goals, subgoals, but mostly about a silly checklist.
6:23 How I broke down my goals to create a week-by-week syllabus!!
10:51 What my "calendar" will look like.
12:05 Questions for youuuuuu!
☟↓ QUESTIONS FOR YOU BELOOOOOW! ↓☟
D I S C U S S I O N Q U E S T I O N S :
What sort of "classes" would you want to take? (Or, what's a specific aspect of writing you'd like to spend some time and really work to get better at?)
If you're currently enrolled in school and taking a creative writing class/major OR you've taken a one-off class offered by an author you admire OR any other scenario like that, PLEASE let me know how it went for you, the pros/cons, and if you'd take one again! :)
