I’m very pleased with the course and learning from everyone! I’ve been raving about it everyone who listens.

This was my first writing workshop and it has inspired me to want to learn more. Thank you for the knowledgeable and supportive tutoring, the carefully paced and structured course and the invaluable experience of learning with a community of students who are all genuinely interested in each other’s development and learning
