Housekeeping - Courses
My classes are still available on Skillshare. However, you can no longer search within Skillshare to find them.
Until I update the content, these courses will be hidden.
Why?
Audio and video quality. Plain and simple. I recorded these courses a while ago, and their AV quality no longer meets the standard.
I will work to update the courses as quickly as possible, but given my other projects that are already scheduled for this year, I’m afraid I will not be updating them immediately
In the meantime, you can still access them by using the links below -

Price Changes on Udemy
A few moments ago, I lowered the prices of the How to Write a Children’s Book and How to Write a Short Story courses on Udemy.
I did this for two reasons -
Lowering the barrier to entry.
These courses sell pretty well on their own, but more people take a course for a test run when they go on sale. I figured why not make them “on-sale” every day!
I don’t do support on Udemy.
Udemy is my “set it and forget it” platform. Much like Skillshare, I don’t flood my student’s inboxes with emails.
I like courses that have specific steps that are easy to follow, and those are the kinds of courses I make. If I’ve done my job right, then my student shouldn’t need much support from me.
I do pop in when students share their work, post stories, or if they have questions. Beyond that, I’m hands-off. Charging premium pricing for that seems stupid. So, I’m not it doing anymore.
If you enjoy learning on Udemy, here are the links to the two courses I previously mentioned -
