This class will encourage and inspire outdoor enthusiasts to write their stories for fun and profit, from opening lines to marketing their masterpiece. Our topics will include examples of good outdoor writing from Hemingway to Rinella, opening lines, the story arc, cliffhangers, sense of place, markets for your work, and marketing.
