I'm sure this has been discussed at some point, but search didn't want to cooperate, so...
Anyone have any thoughts on online writing courses? Better yet, anyone have any recommendations? I'm fully aware that a writer does not need these to write, and that writing and reading actively is the more practical approach. However, back when I was in university writing classes were not something offered and with the wide variety of options available from home now via the internet now, I am tempted. I have free time this summer and would love to spend some time on this before NaNoWriMo 2017 rolls around.
This initially came up as a suggestion from my mother, who saw a facebook ad for James Patterson's MasterClass. Reviews seem to be mixed on that. If it helps at all, I write fantasy and paranormal romance and I am aiming to self publish. I am aware, in my given example, that Patterson and I do not share the same genre.
Thanks for taking the time to look at my question and for any feedback or suggestions. Have a nice day!
