The Chapter Book Alchemist
This magical course opens up the wonderful world of chapter book writing. As picture books become shorter and more image driven, this special form is becoming more and more important.
Come join the fun and learn how to write your own in this fantastic course co-taught by the Chapter Book Alchemist herself, Hillary Homzie, and Dr. Mira Reisberg.

Starting this January!!
Self Publishing with Crowd Funding
Independent publishing is becoming harder as traditional publishing becomes colder to newer writers and even older writers. Take your future into your own hands as we teach you how to create quality books, how to market them, and how to pay for the whole thing with Kickstarter and other crowdfunding sources.

Coming March 2015!!
Craft and Business of Writing Children's Picture Books
In this flagship course, you will learn more than you can even imagine about how to write, revise and submit many kinds of picture book stories for publication.

Coming April 2015!!

Writing for Love and Money
All too often you hear of writers that have all the passion in the world, but no real world knowledge on the actual business end of the career. And then the business end of it tends to be quite a drag and not fun to learn about. In this course Dr. Mira Reisberg injects a whole load of fun into how to Write for Love and Money.

Starting June!!

Craft and Business of Illustrating Children's Picture Books
