Follet takes us methodically through the myriad processes of writing fiction; he does this in a hugely engaging and often slyly humourous style. No stone is left unturned and every question that occured to me was as some point answered in this engossing course. His enthusiasm for his art is inspiring and very enlightening. He deserves our huge thanks.

Some chapters were quite good, but unfortunately it felt like self promoting his works (not that he needs it), but worse was trying to promote his own granddaughter work. All this time, could have been more useful covering in deep topics that were just given a quick glance. Even at the end, some questions were very interesting and eserve a more in deep explanation.

I am writing my first novel. In fact, I thought I had finished it, but the interesting advice from El Maestro has made me rethink and review such important issues as style, order, rhythm and even the way of presenting my characters. Sometimes, it is interesting to chat with a mentor who is an expert in the subject. It always enriches your work. I don't know if I will manage to publish it in the end, but the work is much more attractive and appealing today than before I started the course.

What a treat! I love Ken Follett and love reading him. When I read him I find myself wishing I could do it, wishing I could make people as happy and excited as I am reading him. So of course I had to do this course. And now I will try.
