Well it was quite terrifying showing other people my work – that’s a first for me. But the feedback I received was really helpful. It was as useful being able to see the comments on other people’s work. That’s a great learning tool. I feel much more confident about my writing now.

I’d never thought about the importance of point of view or narrative voice before starting this course. It’s been a bit of a revelation if I’m honest.

The Short Story course materials and structure would be difficult to better. Most importantly, the quality of Mark’s evaluation and feedback on the work submitted has been both encouraging and almost forensically helpful. He unfailingly provided useful guidance on how to work through problematic areas and did a great job of encouraging peer feedback. I…

It is incredibly helpful to have the other participants on the Short Story course read and make comments on my work each week — and in such a supportive way.

The course more than fully met my expectations. For an introductory course it is extremely rich and there is so much potential. The community was what really buoyed me up – more than I could have imagined. I’m also much more convinced about the therapeutic effect of reflective writing. I’ve moved on issues and I’ve…

Taking part in this course has been a wonderful, profound experience and a powerful stage in a journey. I have got so much more from the course than I initially expected, due to its depth and breadth and how carefully it has been put together by Anne and Victoria. I have also been so enriched…

The first online course I’ve ever done turns out to be the best writing course I’ve ever done (and I’ve done lots of brilliant ones). Created and taught by Anne Taylor and Victoria Field, the Introduction to Reflective and Therapeutic Writing is a rich and varied adventure into personal archaeology and cartography. You will dig…

The course has been remarkably good value for money. It has provided loads of resources and many new book suggestions. I have loved the assignments, every single one, and loved the brain-buzz I’ve felt at the end. It has been a sweet learning curve discovering new lives, new careers and new ways of writing.

I’ve loved everything about this course: the required reading, the writing exercises, the added challenge of having to reflect on my own and others’ work, and the privilege of being a learner again. I found the level was about right – not too easy, not too difficult. The format for giving feedback worked well for…

This course has given me new ways of working with my clients and added to my own ongoing self-enquiry. I have felt really held and inspired by the tutors and our online community, this was a concern at the beginning, but very quickly I felt safe and embraced. I take great store from my feedback…

What a terrific course; a gold nugget. I learnt loads. It really is one of the best courses I’ve done. The learning materials were interesting, useful and well-paced.

I’ve really enjoyed the learning process throughout Storytelling for Screen and am now more aware of when something is missing or not working in a script and why that might be. Before it might be a gut feeling, but now I’ve got the tools, the problem solving is much more tangible.
