Great course to take as the first step in the sequence of the "Creative Writing" certification. Exercises are fun, professor provides useful methodology, load is manageable for someone with a day job.
Great information about plot and scene structure. The information about revision was entirely new to me - thank you! The exercises were good and difficult in a good way that helped me hone my writing.

•A great, easy-to-follow course that will suit anyone with a tight schedule. Navigating the website wasn't always straight-forward but I found all the information I needed in the end,

•I thoroughly enjoyed this course. I would highly recommend it to new writers, old authors, editors, and anyone interested in stories. It was a great recap and refreshed the basics.

•Before the course had teachers to evaluate and give counsel to the pupils. Perhaps that should be brought back. Still I see a useful point in making us review our peer's work

•Superb instruction with people who know their craft. My only reservation is this is strict "Peer Reviewed" and I would have appreciated my work evaluated by an instructor.

•Felt the student feedback was a little cursory and the lectures were a little too much watch and learn. But the content was wonderful and the professors were thoughtful.

•I have been writing since I was twelve, and this is the first time I've been able to clearly see what I need to do with my plots. This is good for writers at any stage.

•It makes you write a lot and that's the most important thing. However, there are some small inconsistencies in the materials, so additional reading might be recommended.

•Very good introduction class and i really learned a thing or two: particularly about the ABDCE structure and the guidance around always starting a scene with an action.
創建者 James D R
•Great fun, with excellent and interesting video tutorials. I found the course to challenge me far more than I thought it would. It was a really rewarding experience.

•Great course for establishing the common structure for fictional storytelling. Would recommend for the aspiring writer, or someone looking to sharpen their skills.
創建者 Sarah D
•I really would have liked some professional feedback. Sometimes the word count inhibited creativity, but most times, I managed to get the absolutely necessary in.

•Very to the point and useful as a short starter set to plot. It was well presented and pleasant to listen through, with practical examples and interesting guests.
創建者 Ozlem S
•The instructor has done a good job with the structure and assignments for this course. He explains the course and the assignments very well. I enjoyed the course.
創建者 Arun R
•I think the scene vs plot vs story could be clearer. Each module described a plot or a scene but the assignment asked us to write a story. A little confusing.
創建者 Sharon
•Thank you for giving me some concrete guidelines. I enjoyed following along without doing the assignments. Grateful to be able to be a part of the learning.
創建者 Windy P
•I do wish the instructor had gone into a little more detail about creating a full plot. Maybe offered some ideas on tools to help with development.
創建者 Becky D
•I found the lectures to be useful. However, the assignments were not always clearly communicated, and the peer feedback was inconsistent at times.
創建者 Santiago L L
•The course is a good introduction to creative writing. I found it useful and well strucutred, but I have to say to me it was a little too short.
創建者 Bridgit
•Excellent course. I would have liked to have an assignment to write a longer story using all the course lessons. A full story with each scene.

•Un curso muy completo y enfocado a principiantes. Se recomienda usar grupos de whatsapp con los estudiantes que puedas para compartir tareas

•I only wish that the videos would be longer, have a better production quality, I'd like to see not only slides but also videos, etc.
創建者 Cristina B
•It was a good learning method and I appreciate the lessons and the invited speakers that share so greatly from their experience.
