The Fine Print: Learn the Writing Business

The Fine Print: Learn the Writing Business

New York Times bestselling author and award winning journalist Scott Carney will walk you through everything that journalism schools around the country neglect to teach. This is a no bullshit course about the business of journalism. It's about how you build a career around hard hitting stories that target the very best magazines and newspapers in the country. It will teach you how to negotiate contracts with companies that appear to have all the power when they put a contract in front of you, and how to write stories that have at least a shot of turning into books, movies and TV shows.

But be warned: this is not going to be an easy path. It isn't the sort of course that promises that you'll be making millions overnight. It's about the slow, real life process that you're going to have to go through to make a name for yourself in an incredibly competitive, and even downright exploitative, business.  This is a course for people who already know how to write, and are looking to take their careers to the next level.
