Crimson Peaks and Menacing Mansions: Writing Gothic Horror
Instructor: Catherine Lundoff
Next class will be Sunday, October 23, 2022, 9:30-11:30 AM Pacific time.
Gothic stories are a staple of books, movies, television, and games, creating an aesthetic of darkness and menace, ghosts, prophecies, crumbling houses, black lace and blood — perhaps real, perhaps imaginary.
Join Catherine Lundoff in exploring how you can add this flavor to your writing and work its elements into your speculative writing.
Classes are taught online and require reliable Internet connection, although in the past participants have logged on from coffee shops, cafes, and even an airplane; a webcam is suggested but not required. They are recorded for the benefit of class members only.
Cost is $99 ($79 for returning students and Patreon supporters, which includes classes/workshops with me in other venues, such as conference or convention workshops and mentoring sessions).
To register for this class, send an email with the following details:

Free scholarships: If you cannot afford a class but really want to take one, apply for a Plunkett Scholarship. Each class has three slots reserved for such students, and the sole criteria is only that you can’t currently afford the class. To apply for a Plunkett, which covers the entire cost, mail me and tell me why you want to take the class in 100 words or less. QUILTBAG and PoC candidates are especially encouraged to apply. The Plunkett Scholarships are named for Edward Plunkett, who wrote as Lord Dunsany. Scholarships are given out on a rolling basis; I suggest getting them in sooner rather than later. You may apply for multiple classes.
