Ignite Writers Collective celebrates five years this week (more on that on Thursday!) and I am running a special 15% off on some of my classes* to celebrate this writing community that I care so deeply for.
One Day: Rewriting Motherhood - Thursday, May 2nd 4 - 6 pm ET
Now $127 (was $149)
In this class, we’ll read some of the best authors who have taken up the mantle of motherhood in their writing and do generative writing exercises on topics such as maternal dread, ambivalence, the pressures of parenting in a society that keeps score on social media, and how to write about the path to parenting in a way that will communicate your specific experience to a larger audience. Whether you’re childless by choice, writing through ambivalence and dread, or noticing all the ways your experience of motherhood is not captured in the media, this is the class for you.
Four Weeks: The "Write" of Spring - May 9th - May 30th, 2- 4 pm ET
$850 (was $999)
Plant the seeds with me this Spring for the story you’ve been meaning to tell. This interactive, four week workshop is for those who are just getting started, are early in the process or aren’t sure how to navigate the road ahead. The magic will happen with the accountability, support, and feedback of a tight knit group of likeminded writers who you can talk through issues and stumbling blocks with and test out new ideas.
Are you filled with ideas for essays you could write, but you have no idea who to pitch and how? In this class you'll have the exclusive opportunity to talk with editors from major outlets about what works and what doesn't when it comes to pitching. Our all-star panel will include: Denne Michele Norris, editor in chief of Electric Literature; Noah Michelson head of Huffington Post Personal; Christina Amoroso Editorial Director of Bustle; and Patia Braithwaite, senior staff editor at The New York Times Well.
Use code 5YEARS at checkout to get 15% off on these classes (or my summer classes)!
Happy writing,
Ruthie
