I had a great time doing this course and it was wonderful to meet all my fellow students. Thanks to all their input and comments on my stories; I feel I have learned a lot. I’d like to say a special thank you to my tutor, whose guidance throughout the course was invaluable.

Great course, really planned well to cover elements we can use in all our writing. I am most grateful for my tutor’s insight, encouragement and helpful suggestions for making my writing stronger.

This course has helped me to find my voice again. It has been really good to experiment with a new genre and I have found it a challenge, albeit an exciting one.

If, like me, you struggle to produce anything at all without a looming deadline pressing it out of you, this course is really an excellent place to go. Very very highly recommended.

I understand now when I read something why it might feel a bit lackluster – crime, for instance, doesn’t breathe without setting.
