- Anna Babatzanis

"I am now writing everyday and really experiencing the beauty of the creative process, the difference for me feels nothing short of amazing."
- Imogen Bailey

"Every bit of information that was provided was practical. Valerie's passion for writing was clearly evident and her enthusiasm to help others realise their dreams was awesome. LOVED IT LOVED IT LOVED IT.

"I would highly recommend it. I could not have imagined that I would have got so much out of it in such a small time frame."
- Ana Vavdinos

"I have been writing professionally as a journalist for 18 years but there was so much I didn't know until I attended this course. I left on the final evening feeling inspired rather than scared about writing fiction."
- Michael Smith
