When will you offer Anthologies 101?

You can take it anytime it's convenient for you! We will be offering an "at-your-own-pace" webinar format for Antho 101 starting in July — instead of the previous format of live Zoom sessions. For more details, please email us at info@pomelobooks.com.

When will you offer Anthologies 201 and 401?

Our next Anthologies 201 (working on Things We Feel, a book for PreK) started on May 7th with self-directed exercises and will culminate in a live Zoom session on July 16, 2022. The cost is $299.

Antho 401 will start with a self-directed portion on July 15, 2022 and will culminate in a live Zoom session on September 17, 2022. The cost is $299.

What are the offerings in Anthologies 301?

Anthologies 301 has two components: a "recording-only" component and a "live Zoom" component. With the recording-only component, you can watch videos on GRAPHICS (creating digital postcards and images for social media), VIDEOS (creating promotional videos), and SWAG (creating promotional items such as stickers). With the "live Zoom" component, Sylvia and Janet will answer your questions and help you develop your own projects. The cost is $99.

Do you record these sessions?

Anthologies 101 is a pre-recorded class that you can watch at your convenience.

For Anthologies 201, 301, and 401, three pre-recorded videos are offered only as part of the course; they are not offered separately. The "live Zoom" sessions held at the end of Antho 201, 301, and 401 will not be recorded,
