ABOUT mockler's writing resources


Mockler's Writing Resources  started as a private writing school  in 2017. 

I no longer offer private coaching, mentorships, and workshops.

This site is still a hub for film, screenwriting, and literary resources. You can also sign up for Send My Love to Anyone, a newsletter on all things writing by Kathryn Mockler and guests.

From Western News, 2012

Kathryn Mockler makes students’ writing come alive.

​Whether in the numerous courses she has developed – Out of the Book: Creative Writing in the Digital Age and Renewing Your Poetic Licence – or in her mentoring of students, Mockler makes creative writing real. Her real-world sense of the value of writing means she’s as engaged in the classroom as she is at her own writing desk.
​
“One has to remember her teaching involves being critical of students’ most personal and prized creative endeavours,” Michael Milde, Arts and Humanities acting dean, said.  “She gives them a hard time – and they like it. That takes real skill.”
