My 2012 Class Schedule is now posted through July 2012. I work primarily with mom writers because that’s my specialty, but if this shoes does not fit you, look for new self-study classes coming soon for all types of writers across a variety of my specialty topics.
Here’s what you need to know about my classes that is new in 2012:
No price hikes. I didn’t raise my class prices even though my jaw hits the floor every time I go grocery shopping. I raised prices in August of this year, so how about we give price hikes a break with the holidays coming? (Nothing I can do about the rest of the economy, unfortunately.)
- Writing & Publishing The Short Stuff
- Discover Your Specialty & Launch Your Platform
- Pitching Practice: Write Six Queries In Six Weeks
- Micro-publishing for Mom Writers
I am now offering all four of my classes each time I teach. This means that the class sizes will be smaller, but I’ve noticed that students do better the smaller the class size, so this is a purposeful change. Also, many of my former students are in different phases of career growth and I finally got tired of them saying they wished the class that they wanted was starting sooner rather than later. Well, no more! You’ll see all the classes you want to take each time, so go ahead and take ’em. (I am always happy to discuss timing of enrollment and payment plans with former students, so get in touch if this a concern.) Of course, new students are also welcome to contact me at any time at christina at christina katz dot com.
Classes will turn around on Tuesdays and Thursdays instead of Wednesdays. I am sure this will be no big deal but I’m saying it anyway so that continuing students can make a mental note of it.
I will continue offering scholarships in 2012. I’ve granted thousands of dollars of merit-based career development scholarships since 2006. Today, I offer two need-based scholarship for two classes respectively: Writing & Publishing The Short Stuff and Discover Your Specialty & Launch Your Platform. Next round of scholarships submissions starts on Saturday, December 3rd. Please watch this blog for details.
Please contact Abigail Green directly about her classes. Last, but definitely not least, I have thoroughly enjoyed hosting Abigail Green and her essay writing classes over the past several years. Abby has worked with many of my former students to their delight and publication success and has generously referred her students to my classes. So this change is no reflection on her absolute professionalism and teaching excellence. I am necessarily streamlining my focus to make way for a vigorous schedule in the upcoming year.
Please continue supporting Abby’s teaching and writing by e-mail subscribing to her blog Abby Off The Record now.
My classes have been growing and evolving alongside my writing career for the past ten years. If you would like to hear what my one-time and long-term students have to say about working with me, click here.
Look forward to working with you or continuing to work with you!
