You could argue your essays on writing are aimed at prospective writers. Do you see those posts as a forum similar to a classroom?
Yeah, when I do my podcast, I target it that direction. We actually put the lectures from my most recent class online for free. Why do I do this? Well, when I was breaking into this and figuring out writing, writing is a hard thing to figure out because it’s so individual. Lots of people offer advice, but yet, for any person offering advice, myself included, a lot of the advice won’t work for every writer. What really helped me was the fact that there were a number of authors talking about how their process works and talking about their process and demystifying it, to the point that I was able to get help from a lot of different places. I think it made my writing a lot better. My goal is to do some of the same and let people know how it worked for me. Hopefully, it will help them figure out how it works for them.
