Free Writing Course by Rayne Hall

Now, Rayne is offering a special free seminar aimed at self-isolating writers who wish to take advantage of the pandemic downtime to hone their writing skills.

  You’re welcome. I’d like to, but I wouldn’t get very far. The day it starts, I’ve got 5 online and phone meetings that are nearly back-to-back. No rest for the quarantined TA/author/parent.

    I know what you mean. It’s why I’m not taking it either.
