Frequently Asked Questions
When do these courses start and finish?
The courses start now and never end! These are completely self-paced online courses - you decide when you start and when you finish. We encourage you to approach this material not just as lessons to be finished once and for all, but also as a collection of resources to which you can return time and again.
How long do I have access to the courses?
Forever! After enrolling, you have unlimited lifetime access to these courses - across any and all devices you own.
Does the teacher provide feedback?
No. If you are interested in receiving feedback on your project, we encourage you to check out KYD's Manuscript Assessment Service:

How do I access my courses?
All our online workshops are hosted at workshops.killyourdarlings.com.au, via the Teachable platform. You can access your course by logging in at that link, or by following the link in your welcome email when you enrol. Please note that as the Teachable platform is a separate website to KYD you will need to create a new account, and will not be able to use your KYD login details.
