This course is an absolute must for either a beginner or even someone wanting to refresh or build on previous writing experience. The course tutor Doreen Duffy, has the unique ability to develop an instant, rapport with the student with her relaxed but professional approach. Her feedback was thorough, helpful, and full of insight. This course will motivate you to cultivate a daily writing practice. It will help you to create and bring your characters to life on the page; and it will guide you through the essential steps for writing your own short story from start to finish.
