This six-week online distance workshop is designed to empower scholars, doctoral students and practitioners to increase their ability to write and publish.

Conducted by an Rich Furman, coach, therapist and professor, participants personalize lessons to meet their scholarly goals and dreams through writing exercises, on-line discussions, weekly group conference calls and video lectures.
