I have news! The University of Texas at Arlington contacted me about developing/teaching a few courses for writers. This spring, I’m teaching Writing Young Adult Books. You do NOT have to be a UTA student. Anyone can enroll.
The class will run for five sessions, Monday Evenings from 7-9 p.m. CST.
Basically, during the class, I’m sharing every secret I’ve ever learned about writing, querying, revising, landing an agent. And here’s the thing…You won’t just be learning from me and from the other students in the class…You’ll be learning from some amazing industry pros!
Gwen will be sharing her expertise in creating chemistry between characters!

Jeff graduated from the University of California, San Diego, with an MFA in Dramatic Writing and is the author of The Eleventh Plague and Magisterium (Scholastic). He lives in Beacon, New York, with his wife. Visit him online at www.jeff-hirsch.com.

Congratulations on UT getting in touch with you! Sounds like a win to me. Wish I was closer to Arlington–I could definitely use a course or two. Best of luck! ^-^
Thank you so much. In the future, I think they may have me offer some online offerings, too. Wish you join us! Thanks for the good wishes!
This sounds great! Wish i were closer as well, I’d sign up for an online course in a flash!
Thank you! I couldn’t be more pumped about the class. And hopefully, I’ll have some online offerings in the future!
