Boot Camp Dual Training Tracks
This year we introduce two tracks of study for trainees. The Infantry Level for the new writer, will offer more basic writing skills and needs. This path will guide trainees into a disciplined writing schedule and set them on the path to producing quality work that, with practice can become publishable pieces. The Officer Level, for the more advanced or published writer, sharpens writer skills in the basics but carries them one step higher, introducing trainees to a deeper understanding of genres, presentation, social media and promotion.
This intense weekend of study will break trainees out of their worldly idea of writing and train them up to ADVANCE their work to a new level. God asks us to give of our best in all we do. Boot camp trainees walk away from this weekend ready to take their writing seriously and give of their best.
