What kind of people choose Write Well University?

People choose a Write Well University class to improve their writing. These are people who are willing to spend the time and effort to work on their writing.

If writing isn't important to you, then you're probably not going to be interested in a Write Well University program. If, on the other hand, you feel that writing well is crucial to your career success and maybe even your well-being (do you ever feel that you must write?), we have a program, coaching, or Writing Circle for you.

Are there different programs from which to choose?

Write Well University offers several programs and services to help you become a stronger writer. The Writing Essentials Program is our most comprehensive writing course, and we consider it to be the springboard to our other programs and services. However, some of our programs and services are effective tools on their own. See the sidebar for a complete list of our offerings.

Will one of your classes help me become a better fiction writer and get books published? Will this program help me write business proposals?

No, those aren't the purposes of this program. There are plenty of other programs out there that teach you how to write fiction or business proposals. That's not Write Well University. Our goal is to make people stronger writers so that what they intend is actually what's perceived by the readers, no matter the type of writing. Write Well University programs help you be a better writer. Period.

Do you offer any self-study courses?

We do not. We believe the power in our programs comes from the relationships formed between the participants and the trainer, as well as with each other. The trainer creates a supportive environment in which everyone feels safe to bare his/her writing challenges and to write authentically. That environment can't be created in a self-study atmosphere.

What time of day are your programs offered? Do you offer day and evening programs?

Our programs are offered at various times of the day according to trainer schedule and availability. Check each individual program for its particular schedule.

Are classes recorded?

We do not record our classes.

If you miss a class, we encourage you to contact one of your classmates to get an overview of what you missed. You can also sign up for one of the one-on-one coaching sessions with your trainer to go over the class material.
