Class Source Collaborative Novel Writing

Class Source Collaborative Novel Writing is a writing class for high school (and some middle school) homeschooling students. This course takes students through the process of writing a novel, focusing on writing skills and improvement as individual writers within the context of creative writing and fiction... But what is most unique about this course is the final semester project, the collaborative Class Source novel. Students actually co-write an original novel, under the guidance of the instructor, producing a collaborative work that is then published at the end of the semester, and proceeds from the sale of each book go toward creating scholarships for future Class Source students. This class is a great way to accomplish an English credit while helping students improve their writing, practice constructive criticism and peer reviews, build their confidence as writers, and learn about the self-publishing process...all while contributing toward a worthy cause.
