Read MoreI thoroughly enjoyed this short Course. The Course materials were presented in an accessible way, with lots of examples. The Assignments were relevant to the Modules and encouraged writing in any genre. By far the most valuable aspect of the Course for me was the excellent feedback from Esther. She commented in depth and suggested changes where she thought they were needed. Constructive criticism and encouraging words are what I need and are what Esther provided. Very good value for money. Thank you, Esther. I’ll be looking out for more Courses from Esther and Writers Bureau.
