All,

Sorry to use this list for some additional shameless self-promotion, but we need to get additional people signed up for the If You Can Think It, You Can Write It II class being offered this Saturday from 9 to 5. We only have 5 people currently enrolled in the class and need at least 8 for Upper Arlington Lifelong Learning to run the class, so if you are interested in signing up, do it today! Otherwise, the class will be cancelled. Here are the details:

IF YOU THINK IT, YOU CAN WRITE IT II (NEW CLASS!)Municipal Services Center, 3600 Tremont Rd

COST: $45.00(Resident), $49.50(Non-Resident)

DEADLINE: April 13

There are three ways to register for classes at UA Lifelong Learning:

· Register online using your MASTERCARD or VISA, click the following link: https://parks.uaoh.net/VSIWEBTRAC.HTML

· Fill out a registration form here: http://www.ua-ohio.net/parksrec/lifelong/registration.pdf and mail it to or drop it off (with a check or money order) at Lifelong Learning & Leisure, 3600 Tremont Road, Upper Arlington, OH 43221

· Call (614) 583-5333 between 9:30am and 3:30pm weekdays to register using your VISA or MASTERCARD

*******************************

And, we still have slots open for the Fiction Writing Critique Class. I've extended the deadline for enrollment to Friday, April 15th. This is NOT being offered through UA Lifelong Learning, so we do have more flexibility to meet the needs of the people interested in enrolling in the class.

Are you ready to get serious about your fiction? Then sign up for the Fiction Writing Critique Class where you will learn how to critique the work of others, and how to identify and fix the common problems with fiction and narrative non-fiction. Some of the other topics addressed within the class are; formatting your manuscript for publication, creating realistic dialog, the basics of good description, handling hooks, pacing and progression in your story, and more. But most of the lessons will be taught using student manuscripts as examples. The book used for the class (not included in the cost of the class) is Noah Lukeman’s _The_ _First Five Pages: A Writer’s Guide to Staying Out of the Rejection Pile_ (Paperback, Fireside Books, $13.00, ISBN: 068485743X).

This is a twelve hour class meeting in six 2-hour sessions that will meet every other Wednesday from 7 to 9pm at a location to be determined by those who enroll in the class. The cost is $70. If you are not satisfied with what you get out of the class, you will get your money back! If you are interested in registering, contact me at mich-@wilson.us. This class will begin either on April 20th or 27th, based on the preferences of the enrollees. If you are serious about getting published, then this class is for you!

Stay in touch and I hope to see you in class soon!
