Yes

By Zha Servidad on 10/12/2020

This course covered all the basics. The pace is slower than I expected and some of the topics felt short or abrupt. But this is a great starting point for anyone who really wants to start writing.

By Diya Singh on 10/10/2020

it is a whole new experience as this is the first time i've ever taken an online course, so yeah I'm settling with it and it seems pretty good. thank you.

By Kelly A. Schommer on 9/24/2020

This course, so far, is a great match for me. The instructor is easy to understand and making some very doable suggestions. I have trouble with focusing and these tips will help me to write with confidence. I'm very excited!

By Annemarie Duperouzel on 9/24/2020

Very simple and easy to follow, I especially liked your little note for working mums to have their time, you really do understand what it's like to be a parent. Thanks for taking the time to put this together

By Lindsay Treasure on 9/23/2020

I had previously purchased longer courses but found I was procrastinating and needed to get back to basics. This course reminded me to think about writing as a fun, creative pursuit and not to put so much pressure on the finished article (I am perfectionist in the worst of ways!). Tracey's course has reminded me to have fun and given useful pointers to help release any creative blockages along the way.

By Jiji Varghese on 9/21/2020

yes, great course it does match my interests. thank you

So, far I am getting a lot of ideas to start writing again.

By Andrea Peden on 8/18/2020

So far, this course seems to be perfect for me.

By Pabitra Dey on 8/18/2020

Although I have always wanted to write for pleasure, I was very hesitant to get into the process of writing until one day finding your course on Udemy. I finished it on a single sitting and found it very simple and helpful.
