Well structured and interesting

By Ivan Alcantara on 11/19/2020

Best course I've taken here in Udemy on writing. It's the most complete. The ideas are clear with examples. The structure and content flow smoothly and logically. It is unlike other courses where the expert just talks and share his knowledge as if over a cup of coffee. This one is well structured and is really a course and something you can go back to over and over if you need refresher.

By Naomi Keegan on 10/14/2020

Good match. I was looking for something to break down the novel-writing experience into manageable chunks so that I feel like progress is being made and stay motivated.

By Lea Dokes on 10/9/2020

I took this course because I wanted to explore a new art form. Writing is something I have always wanted to do but I'm not very good at it. So far, this has given me great incite on how to come up with a plan.
