Author Roxane Gay (rgay) will use the instructional lecture format to teach writing with a bent toward justice and social change.

The classes mostly focus on prose — fiction and nonfiction — but people who write in other genres can learn from them too, said Gay in a video interview Thursday. “The class is for practicing writers who want to develop their opinion writing skills, but it’s also for new writers who maybe have not considered writing before but do have an opinion, an idea or something they want to say and would like to know where to start.

An annual subscription to MasterClass permits access to more than 100 courses for $180, or you can buy a single class for $90, but Gay graciously offered The Times three free tips: First, read your work out loud — if you can. “It allows you to hear the sounds of your sentences and the soundness of your ideas.” Second, acknowledge other perspectives respectfully so readers don’t feel “dismissed.” And third, make a habit of it.
