62: Anyone Can Teach an Online Writing Course, by Beth L. Hewett
Description
Kyle Stedman (@kstedman) reads the bad idea "Anyone Can Teach an Online Writing Course," by Beth L. Hewett. It's a chapter first published in Bad Ideas about Writing, which was edited by Cheryl E. Ball (@s2ceball) and Drew M. Loewe (@drewloewe). Don't miss the joke: the author of the chapter is disagreeing with the bad idea stated in the chapter's title.
