Traditional writing programs spend months on abstract theory. We run the classroom like a professional editorial desk: we read your draft on Tuesday, mark what works and where the reader gets lost, and hand you concrete line edits to test on Wednesday.
By the end of a cohort you have a finished deliverable and an internal editor you can use for the rest of your career.
