They didn&#8217;t know that they would walk out of that venue as real writers, with the actual training\u00a0<strong>and<\/strong> heart to finally wield words and use them as weapons that will help change this world.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>HAVE YOU EVER WANTED TO\u00a0BEGIN WRITING, BUT DIDN&#8217;T KNOW HOW?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We all experience bumping into the wall that separates us from our dream to writing down that book, article, story, blog post, or poem.<\/p>\n<p>It may be a wall of fear, feelings of inadequacy, over busy-ness, doubts, or insecurities.<\/p>\n<p>Some people bulldoze their way through that wall. Others dig beneath to get to the other side. Some others would walk its entire length to see a small space wherein which they could pass through. These people live to see their works in print or on the screen.<\/p>\n<p>But sadly, others drop the pen. And the dream will forever remain a dream.<\/p>\n<p>Sounds familiar? Of course it does. You&#8217;re probably nodding your head as you read this now, because if you weren&#8217;t then you wouldn&#8217;t even be reading this in the first place (because you&#8217;ll have been writing your masterpiece).<\/p>\n<p>But worry no more. We can help each other break through that wall. This January, we are launching another set, another batch, another cycle of dreamers-turned-real-writers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>START THE YEAR RIGHT.
