About the Course
The Galloping Muse uses four pillars—the universe, the muse, red/green/yellow, and the writer’s process – to teach the art of writing based on the simple concepts of energy and vibration.
The 4-Pillar Course is a 4-week adventure where you’ll get 1 hour of online live instruction every week with Kathy, plus 2-3 in-class interactive assignments and a little homework, which we call “homeplay!”
90 Minute sessions will be available soon for online classes individuals can join. All students will receive a certificate of completion at the end.
COURSE OUTLINE
Class One: The Universe
You are not just entering a course. You are entering a universe, where space is sacred, where writing is an exchange of energy, where vibration is king, and the metaphor always wins, you’ll be introduced to Green, Yellow and Red theory of great writing (Pillar II) Story (Pillar III) and The Writer’s Process and Dingo Writer’s Tricks (Pillar IV) you’ll be introduced to the rules of the universe (rules are fun here) and you’ll be sent off to find a muse, if your muse has not already found you.
Class Two: Green Light Red Light Yellow Light
This is the heart of the toolbox of The Wandering Muse program. Writing is an exchange of energy. Green is high energy. Red is low energy. Yellow is somewhere in between. You’ll see examples of each, and you will be entertained, so help me God. By the end of this hour, the light will come on. That switch that shows you distinctively how to look at writing in a whole new way, and take your own writing to the next level.
Class Three: The Story
A lot of books on writing make stories sound difficult. I want to make storytelling easy for you. So I show you how easy it is. And I show you the flow of energy. Most stories move from a low to a high vibration. Good stories are medicine for both the reader and the writer. And the doctor is in! That’s me!
Class Four: The Process
There are ways to write faster and with more confidence. You see, you might be using a low vibration formula. I will show you a better one that will leave you more mentally healthy, and also introduce you to some of my own secret writing hacks and advice. Then the course will be over, and you will be sad. But who knows, maybe there will be a Galloping Muse sequel! Sequels rock unless you are talking Bad Santa 2 or Mall Cop 2. Also Teen Wolf.
90-Minute Course
The 90 minute course is a condensation of the first two classes and an excellent way to enter the universe of The Galloping Muse. You’ll learn about finding a muse, the power of metaphor, the importance of vibration and the essential tool known as “Green Red Yellow.” Includes an interactive class writing assignment and a certificate of completion.
