Fiction Writing Course By no means can everyone who has the urge to write fiction can do so successfully and for publication. Fiction writing is a craft which must be learned, like any other. This course is not among those which declare, "Anyone has it in them to write a good short story". It is a complex craft and there are no short cuts to success. We will teach you how to avoid some of the pitfalls, and show you some of the short cuts.
