Highlights
This third course in the "Good with Words: Writing and Editing"� series will give you a number of strategies to help with what is often the most intimidating, even paralyzing part of the writing process: getting started.
You'll learn about the "planning fallacy"� and "temptation bundling."� You'll get a chance to experiment with "freewriting"� and "writing before you are ready."� And you'll continue to benefit, through our ongoing "Good Sentences"� and "Takeaways"� segments, from the models and advice of a diverse set of writers.
As with the other three courses in this series, you will also get access to a wide range of books and other resources you can use even after you finish the course. These include: (1) the readings and exercises provided to the students who have taken the in-person version of this course at the University of Michigan and the University of Chicago; (2) two digital libraries of excellent writing from a diverse collection of journalists, scientists, novelists, poets, historians, and entrepreneurs; and (3) a monthly "Good Sentences"� email.
