Continuing my Writing Education

Okay, so I am well aware of the fact that while I LOVE to write, there are definitely things that I need to learn if I am ever going to get published.  So through one of my writing groups, I signed up for two workshops.

The first one is on writing a synopsis.  It's called "The Synopsis - the Necessary Evil" and the other one is "25 Words from Query to Sales Success".  It's only day two and I feel like I have already learned a lot.  Actually, I wish I had the opportunity to take these classes BEFORE submitting anything anywhere!

So I decided to continue with my education and signed up for two more workshops next month. The first is on designing and teaching classes online (something that I would LOVE to do) and the other teaches everything you need to know about using Microsoft Word to write a novel.  I am particularly psyched for that one.  

Basically, none of these classes are seemingly doing much to help me find a job, but they are certainly helping me with my writing which someday, God willing, will BE my job.
