At the end of the month you will have written a short story that Kevin will then edit and return to you with tips, tricks and pointers on how to get it published. And one lucky student will win the workshop prize for best story and get the next Kevin Strange writing workshop for FREE!

Gang! We are no12980719_10154703667443098_1559025993_ow just 24 hours out from my next workshop registration! The previous workshop filled in less than two days, so be sure to come back here to KevinTheStrange.com tomorrow at 12:00pm CST to ensure you get a spot. IT WILL SELL OUT!

In my workshops, I teach a one hour lecture, live via Google Hangouts which ensures that the energy and enthusiasm I bring to writing and teaching fiction is communicated as fully and naturally as possible without actually being inside a classroom.

The workshop spans four weeks and is totally interactive. I encourage class participation and communication through the webcam technology of Google Hangouts which enables us to talk in real time, just like a real classroom!

But again, you don’t have to take my word for it. Here’s former student Craig Bullock on the Kevin Strange writing workshop:

“The class enabled me to transform an idea into a full, marketable story. The seminars provided a great insight into the structure of what a short story should be and provided me with the knowledge to confidently write and promote my work. Was an invaluable experience that will stay with me throughout my writing endeavours and one that I am eager to repeat again. The support and advice provided was invaluable and helped guide me towards my end goal, constantly making me evaluate my approach to writing a short story.”

My Bizarro workshop will dive in depth into the key fundamentals of Bizarro fiction: Story, Character, and Setting.

Each week, I will do a live one hour video lecture that will be archived on a private youtube channel for all students to revisit as many times as they like.

Each week, we will discuss, at length, another fundamental element of what makes Bizarro Bizarro. This workshop is a great way to get quick, one-on-one feedback from a two time Wonderland Award for Excellence in Bizarro Fiction nominee without breaking the bank. But you don’t have to take my word for it. Here’s Gene Kelly X, a former Kevin Strange Workshop student giving his testimonial about his time in my workshop:

“Strange Stories With Kevin Strange” was one of the best writing courses I have taken. Kevin Strange’s experience and enthusiasm for the material was contagious and energizing. The live give and take internet lecture format was perfect, and the material was a spot on blend of classic technique with a wealth of shared insight and methods that Kevin developed from his own experience. I strongly recommend any of Kevin’s classes to new and journeyman writers. – Gene Kelly X.”
