Further, the community itself is active, and both grads and current students discuss how they use lessons, techniques, processes, and structures. I cannot grade homework. I created the courses because I don’t have the time for individual one-on-one feedback. Since your “homework” is either writing your novel (or screenplay, or other story you intend to publish) or revising it, you have to learn the process of doing your core revision yourself…and then, depending on the path to publication you choose, either the agent you find by going the commercial publication route, or the editor you hire by going the self-pub route, will help you smooth off any remaining rough edges. This is not a course with grades. This is a course where graduation means working toward selling your work. I can sometimes comment on questions asked in the community.
