Editing your own drafts
Four weeks of the editing passes our instructors use, so your second draft is always better than your first.
4 weeks, live
Tuesdays, 7:00 pm ET

Anyone with a first draft
Most people stop after one draft because they do not know what to look for. This course gives you four passes to run on anything: the ask, the structure, the cut and the read-aloud.
Each week you edit a draft of your own and one from your group, and compare your edits with Owen's.
