Today Melissa and Julie nerd out about writing. We're passionate about writing. We're professional writers! Ergo: we LOVE it! The unique aspect of Brave Writer is that our approach to teaching writing is different from what's typically taught in education or seen in other writing resources. It’s a process that is reflective of the stages a writer goes through when writing and publishing a novel. And when we were designing that program, we felt that the missing element in writing education was love. We discuss the history of the written word that led us to this conclusion, as well as new technologies that may have the potential to disrupt what it means to be a writer.ChatGPTBut what about this brave new world of ChatGPT and the dawning of this new AI era? Will Melissa and Julie be out of a job? Do your kids even need to learn how to write?What role should ChatGPT play in our culture and education systems? You can download show notes for the podcast here: https://blog.bravewriter.com/category/podcasts/Resources:openai.com/blog/chatgptSister Wendy's Story of PaintingLooking for a new math program?
