AUTHOR COURSES
Welcome to my courses for new authors! My name is Eva Pohler, and I'm an award-winning and USA Today bestselling author of over forty-five novels in multiple genres. I've been a writing professor for over three decades, and I'm a professional editor. In more recent years, I've taught creative writing and entrepreneurial strategies for creatives as an adjunct professor at Trinity University, where I've helped university students turn their passions into careers.
Drawing on my Ph.D. work on "Narrative Strategies," my three decades of teaching, and my fifteen years of writing, publishing, and promoting my work, I've created a series of courses to help other writers. Whether you're just starting out or wanting to take your career to the next level, these courses will help you on your path to success.
The first course, "The Science of Story Explained," demystifies the craft of storytelling. Drawing on timeless narrative principles, it reveals how powerful stories are built—from character motivation and conflict to structure and style—so you can write with clarity, confidence, and impact.
By the time you finish this course, you will have the tools you need to FINISH YOUR NOVEL this month!
