The Writing School

We are a writing school for anyone who wants to write–for work, for school, or for pleasure. We’re also a writing community–writing is not a solitary activity, and writers (and readers) can use this site to connect with others, to share their work, and to find support.

May we Help You?

People come to our site because they want to learn how to write better.

You might be:

• A businessperson whose first language is not English. You want a sustainable, low-stress way to to improve your reading and writing skills in English. 
• A neuro-atypical person who wants to grow as a writer. 
• An ex-writer. You wrote when you were in your teens and twenties, but since then you just “haven’t had time.” Lately, you’ve wanted to start up again, but you don’t know how to begin. 
• A parent. Your kids are having trouble in school, whether because of language barrier, learning disabilities, or something else entirely. You’ve tried a few things and are open to a different (but tried-and-true) approach.
• A kid who just likes to write. At school, they assign essays and lab-reports, but there’s no one teaching you how to do the kind of writing you actually like.
  
  

How to Sign Up

Single class: Feel free to start with an introductory class. We’ll begin with a free phone call where we talk about what you’re hoping to gain from the course. If you choose to continue then we’ll schedule our first meeting over Zoom. $50

Subsequent classes are also $50 each. We recommend scheduling at least 5 classes. You will meet one-on-one with Adam. Classes last one hour. You can meet once a week, twice a week, or once every two weeks.

Block of 10 classes: Same as above, but a better deal! $450

Custom: Reach out to us, tell us what you need, and let’s talk. Is an hour too long for you? Too short? Would you rather interact by phone than by Zoom? Let us know how you learn best, and we’ll build your course around you.

Small groups (perfect for siblings, small businesses, and more): For each additional person, add $25 per person, per class. A block of 5 classes for two students would cost $375.

Please send your request by email to [email protected]. We accept Paypal and Buy Me a Coffee.

What to Expect

In addition to individual or small group classes with Adam, you’ll also have access to writing groups and our Facebook and Discord communities where you can connect with other writers for encouragement, feedback or advice. Whether it’s structure and accountability to help you maintain a writing schedule, a listening ear to help you get around a roadblock or a place to celebrate your success, a writing community is an important part of the writing process.

The Writing Community

While we might choose to write alone, writers still need to connect with other writers. Writing is not a solitary activity. We need editors, beta readers, and accountability partners. And we definitely need our cheering section–the people who help us when we’re stuck, when we’re frustrated, and when we’re celebrating. We need someone to hand us the thesaurus or remind us about great topic we’ve forgotten we wanted to write about.

Share your Work

One of the great frustrations of learning to write is not knowing when or where to submit your work. You don’t need to sign up for writing classes to submit with us. You just need to have work you want to share. This part of the site could be especially useful for when we’re ready to share with others but not ready (for whatever reason) to look for places to publish what we’ve written.
