Do you have an essay or memoir excerpt (up to 1,500 words) that you would like to get submission-ready? Check out my upcoming 3-week class for revision online with Project Write Now. Sign up here. Description from PWN website:

Ready, Set, Revise!

Transform essays from draft to done.

Ready to revise that personal essay draft that’s been sitting on your hard drive? Want to finally get your memoir excerpt publication ready?

In this intensive three-week class, writers bring an existing essay or memoir piece (up to 1,500 words) ready for deep revision. Starting with first paragraph analysis, participants receive structured feedback through two rounds of revision, developing their work with expert guidance and peer insights. We focus on crafting compelling openings, strengthening narrative flow, and identifying potential publishing outlets for each piece.

Schedule includes:

– Week 1: First paragraph workshop and revision strategy development

– Week 2: Full piece workshop and guided revision

– Week 3: Final revision workshop and publication planning

“For creative nonfiction writers, the revision process presents possibilities, both great and small, for reaching greater levels of self-awareness. As we deepen our understanding of the relationship between our past and present selves and articulate that more clearly for readers on the page, maybe–just maybe–we can strike a universal chord.”
