Is there anything more frustrating than wanting to write your essay but not knowing what to say? Or, setting aside a chunk of time to write only to end up with a bunch of half sentences and scribbled out words? Ugh, I've been there. And, let me tell you - because I used to think this was true - blank screens aren't a symptom of poor writing skills. They're a symptom of ineffective reading.

     If you're ready to end your ongoing and dreadful relationship with the blinking cursor, this class is for you. I'll give you a strategic plan to crack open a text and pull out your ideas so that when you've finished reading, you'll have a stack of notes filled with ideas to write your essays in less time and with less stress.
