  • “I learned so much about practical steps toward using the material I create. The overview of how many drafts to aim for and what to focus on in each draft was gold. The live feedback was very difficult for me, but the way it was handled made it really valuable, positive, and opened doors for moving forward.”

  • “I learned that I don’t have to be afraid of the chaos. There are means to manage that. Just get all of the ideas down, even the seemingly most insignificant word or phrase. The instructor’s system for organizing and using notes and other inputs is very useful for me. It suits the organizer in me.”

  • “I learned how to set up a system in order to overcome writing obstacles: write regularly, reward yourself, and try not to think too much—just do it! Corrections can come later, anyway. More intuitive!”

  • “Students of the ‘Simply Writing’ course left inspired and motivated to write!! The instructor’s ability to interact with each individual student and give that extra boost is a very warm and special quality. The information is practical, informative, and focused on stimulating the students to get on with their writing. The techniques taught are practical and specific tools for getting started or getting down to the work at hand.”

  • “The step-by-step explanation of an organic writing process was absolutely unforgettable to me. It felt exciting and safe to get feedback on my work. The feedback that was given was very eye-opening and therefore very useful for me. It gave me more insight into how people read my text and what is needed to keep them reading.”

  • “I discovered that it’s not always the topic of the literature that moves me, it’s the style of writing… The workshop was great fun and very inspiring.”

  • “I learned about different structures for an essay—and about some authors I would like to read more of.

    The instructor has obviously been doing this for a long time. She was very well prepared. She respected everyone’s comments and input. Everyone’s piece was given in-depth analysis.”
