1... Writing Deserts and Cookie Stories

Down in the Details Writing Cross-Genre Holiday Stories

DOWN IN THE DETAILS Writing Classes

This brand new series of writing classes is focused on details in certain areas of a genre. The three genres to start are Mystery, Fantasy, and Science Fiction Space Opera. Other areas will follow. Each will have eight classes.

Each class will be 9 or 10 videos on the topic of the class, plus a story prompt to write a story and submit it to Dean Wesley Smith when the anthology opens.

At some point when all classes are recorded in all areas, we will put out an announcement of the opening of original anthologies from the prompts.

Only one story per class per writer. But if you take all eight classes in the genre, you will get the chance to write eight different stories to get into the anthology.

There will be bundles to buy all eight of any genre for a discount.

This class is the first class of the eight classes. This one is WRITING DESERTS AND COOKIES.

All instructions for the story submission from this class will be in the story assignment, including the topic restrictions, subject line, and so on when it is announced.
