Testimonials:
Asmita says her favorite parts were ādiscussing emotions and how to write about them,ā and āconnecting with amazing humans!ā
Sxd says, āI was glad to learn from other people about what worked for them in their writing and appreciated feedback from the instructor on how to make my pieces more effective. I enjoyed the small class size, the interactive nature of the group and the overall feedback by the teacher.ā
Robin says,
As an established writer with a steady following I know that I'm already creating content that's liked. This class took my own expectations of my work to a higher level. It really helped me gain new perspectives on how to add emotion and portray feelings in a way that's relatable for my audience.
Being in a live meeting space with other creators was also very valuable. I felt seen in those common struggles a lot of us faced together.
Rey's guidance, both in the written/video class content, in the "classroom" discussions with us, and in their feedback on my assignments was thoughtful, sensitive to the varied needs of the group, and pushed me to work harder to write a better essay. I can't express enough gratitude for them in this class!
Charlie says, āSign up for this. Working with Rey is worth it.ā
