Interested in Creative Writing?

Invitation to a writing course with exciting reading and writing experiences

Do you want to write creatively and develop your creative abilities?

The starting point for me who write this is that I am sure that everyone — absolutely everyone — can benefit greatly from developing their writing skills.

The last year I have discovered how I can develop myself as a writer, and easily publish my texts so that they get readers. I have chosen to write the most in English, but have also published in Norwegian. In English, readers from all over the world are potential readers, but the site where I have published, Medium, also lets me publish in Norwegian.

I have been teaching writing in upper secondary education for almost four decades, and I have been a writer of fiction for many years. This fall, 2018, it’s actually 40 years since I released my debut novel, Stupet (“The Precipice”) at Det Norske Samlaget, a Norwegian Publishing House.

Writing is easy for some, difficult for others. But everyone can write and everyone can benefit from trying to write.

It’s a good idea to start small and try out simple texts privately at first.

Now in October, I start a writing project that is a writing course for people who like to read and are interested in writing.

The writing course is free and starts about like this:

  • You are interested? Then you email me, [email protected].
  • Shortly you will access a course website, where you will be able to see the plan for the writing course.
  • You join a closed group on Facebook, where everyone who participates is a member.

Then let’s go!

I think that this writing course might be of interest to anyone who is a little reflected and who likes to read, for example:

  • young adults who look forward to what life can offer and who may want to try to write in English with people from the whole world as potential readers (or in Norwegian)
  • people in the middle of their busy life, who can read and write English and who want to practice English skills or who want to write in Norwegian and develop as a writer
  • adults and elderly who have experienced many things which may be worth to be taken care of in the form of stories, sketches, memories, articles, poems.

Common to everyone in the target groups is that everyone has ideas, thoughts and experiences worth developing and taking care of. As the world is today with the internet, it is so easy for us to write and get readers. Thus valuable information and exciting texts can easily be made available to both our contemporaries and those who live after us.

Medium is a fantastic web site.

At https://medium.com I can publish what I write and perform all the publishing work myself. I create an account, I write my text, I find a photo either in my private image archive, or at https://unsplash.com, where I can choose between millions of free pictures.

I put together text and image, I easily format in Medium and press Publish. Then it’s done!

Below is one of the newest texts of mine on Medium, with images from Unsplash that I’m allowed to use for free.

Here I also add Friend Links to more texts that I have published on medium.com lately (I have published about 100 texts in total).

Thank you for reading!
