Terry Fallis, Novelist

I’ll be teaching a five week course on Wednesday nights starting June 1st for the University of Toronto’s School of Continuing Studies as part of their Creative Writing program. The course is less about writing than it is about how to build an audience for your work. We’ll be exploring various ways to elevate the profile of your writing including blogging, podcasting, Twitter, speaking gigs, readings, and even awards. So if you’ve written the great Canadian novel but can’t get anyone to read it, you just might learn a thing or two to help you get noticed. I developed the course and this will be the first time I’ve actually taught it, although “taught” seems too formal a word. So spread the news or sign up yourself. I think we’ll have some laughs along the way.
