This was our April.

Five classes in one month. Over fifty students across screenwriting, poetry, lifestyle writing, public speaking, and professional writing. Mentors who are actively doing the work they teach.

We're still catching our breath, in a good way.

National Literature Month has always felt important to us. Running five classes through it felt like the right way to mark it. Not with a lecture about why Filipino writing matters, but by actually doing the work.

To the mentors who gave their time and knowledge, thank you. To every student who came through the door this April — we hope you felt it.

Join our growing community — DM us on Instagram to enroll today!

BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND!
