Customer Reviews
Amazing insight into the craft
Wow! I am addicted to this. It offers wonderful insights into the craft of building a story. It is incredibly useful to follow the journey of another writer, through their process, mistakes, lows and highs - all guided by an expert in the publishing industry. It has revolutionised the way I approach a first draft and - no doubt - my editing process when I get there.
Full of useful tips to help your writing improve
I discovered this a couple of weeks ago and since then have listened to around 50 episodes as I’ve found it to be so helpful for both improving my writing and also my storytelling. Each episode has great suggestions on many different aspects of book writing.
The best for writers
