Have you taken an online writing course?
If you have not taken an online writing course, I suggest you read this post on the NCWN blog.

Jeremy B. Jones, a professor at Western Carolina University and author of Bearwallow: A Personal History of a Mountain Homeland (Blair, 2014), was interviewed by Gretchen Thomas. She asked him about teaching online during the pandemic and asked for good advice for writers. As writers, we all have judged ourselves on whether our work was accepted or rejected. I like Jones' comment on this and found it to be my philosophy as well.
What do you think?
If you have taken an online course, please tell us about it. You can email or leave a comment below.
We have been asked to do a poetry online course. Would you be interested? Catherine Carter would be the instructor.
