For those of you asking… yes I am teaching a second Blogging Your Way e-course this winter! Yay! Registration for the winter session has been postponed but will begin on Monday, December 7th. This e-course will run from January 18 – March 8, 2010 (7 weeks, though students will have access to the e-course until March 30 to review materials a second time, post in the forums, etc.) and there is a special bonus! I’ve invited an assistant teacher and I’ll tell you who and more about her on Monday… but you’ll be thrilled I’m sure!
This class will be focused on blogging but will also feature coursework on styling. You’ll learn about styling objects and spaces for photographs that will help you to make a more personal space out of your blog, one that reflects your unique vision and passion. You’ll also learn a few tips on taking photographs and how to best present your life and work in order to create your unique online space. This is not a photography class, but having a camera, basic knowledge of how to use one, and a blog that you’ve been writing on for at least a few months are both requirements so please do not enroll unless you have both or we will not be able to accept your registration.
Please note: If you took the first BYW class you will not be able to enroll in this class. However, a BYW Part Two is being discussed for Spring 2010 and will last for 3 weeks and will include the styling/photography coursework that you missed in Part One, so don’t worry — you won’t miss a thing! That class will be ONLY for BYW grads from Spring 2009.
Stay tuned – registration and course details will be posted here on decor8 December 7th!

:( <— Sad face is because I can't sign up for the course, I'm super interested in the new material but really excited to hear that a part 2 is in the works.
I thoroughly enjoyed the first BYW course. I know there are folks out there that were on the fence about singing up and then were unable to register because the course filled up. Don't think twice now that there is a second opportunity.
Holly dishes out so much behind the scenes blogging information that took her years to cultivate. The course price is a total bargain considering what you will learn. In addition to the great topics she covers the course also has the built in support system of your fellow classmates. Everyone works together and learns from each other. I've kept in touch with many of the blog friends I made while taking the course.

I am crushed I can’t take BYW again but happy about the Part 2. Being in BYW was one of the happiest times I’ve had as a blogger in the three and a half years I’ve been at it.

This sounds great! Any chance you’ll offer an introductory course for those of us who’ve been kicking around the idea of starting a blog but haven’t yet? And will you offer this course again in the future so newbies like myself can catch up? Thanks!
December 1st, 2009 at 9:05 pm
Hooray! I’m am very much looking forward to the class :)
December 1st, 2009 at 9:23 pm
This sounds like something I might be interested in! One question–is it asynchronous? I work full-time and would probably not be able to meet during a specific time.

Johanna – Great question — yes, it is self-paced though their are weekly homework assignments but they’re not intensive by any means – and you can log into the site 24/7 to read the materials I’ve left there, listen to my podcasts, or interact with other students in the forum.
December 2nd, 2009 at 4:25 am
Jessica – Thank you, what a nice thing to share… And yes, a BYW 2 is just around the corner so no worries!

I am so excited that you will have a blogging course. I really need some help on my blog. I can’t wait to sign up. I heard so much good stuff about your last blogging course.
December 4th, 2009 at 3:27 pm
Hello, hello!
I am really glad to hear that you will do a separate class for the first batch of BYWers on photography. Very exciting! I have been struggling with some aspects of photography (lighting being one of them), so I will be looking forward to this.
Thanks,

Hi, this sounds to be a great idea. I’ve been blogging for 3 months only and I ‘ve trully got hooked on it!! However I feel I still need to learn loads, loads, loads ot stuff. My blog is partly in Polish – my native language, partly in English. Do you think I’m a suitable candidate to enroll on your e-course?
