Why Write of Passage

It's Not a Course—It's a Transformational Experience

Course Pillars

Writing from Abundance

Learn to build a bank of inspiring ideas while you’re away from the computer and before you sit down to write. Writing from Abundance is the art of collecting ideas in your daily life, so you never stare at a blank page again.

Writing from Conversation

Learn to use conversation to identify great ideas and tweak their delivery. Writing from Conversation is the art of using dialogue to identify good ideas and double down on the best ones. You’ll be surprised who says, “I feel that way too!”

Writing in Public

Learn to overcome the feeling of invisibility and hit publish. Writing in Public is the art of broadcasting your ideas online, so you become a beacon for people, opportunities, and Internet serendipity. You will attract peers that lead to recognition and revenue.
