Patrick Barry has put together a terrific series of courses! Skills in the nuances of writing, organizing complex ideas, planning, how to get around 'blocks' and get started. Well worth it!
Really great writing course with lots of real world examples and great context given. Would absolutely recommend to a friend.
This course opened me up to more ways to write creatively; emphasis on the use of the semicolon and however.
Fantastic, well worth the investment for anyone who wants to learn to communicate their ideas better.
