Lesson Sample: The Braiding of Words



Student feedback for the Writer?s Passage (formerly Working the Word)

"Working the Word has made me a braver, stronger and more courageous writer. Stimulating and motivating, I could not bear to miss a week. My writing confidence has soared."
-Coral Carter

"As an emerging poet, doing this course was like being planted in very fertile soil. Tracing the evolution of the written and spoken word through human history has not only enriched my knowledge of literature and language immeasurably, but provided me with a strong grounding for my continuing growth as a poet."
-Jaya Penelope

"I loved taking the journey through the depth of human experience through history. I feel greatly enriched at having found a voice, my authentic voice in writing."

-Rhea Pfeifle
