“My problem has been what to do next, I spend a lot of time redoing things and thrashing around trying to do the next step and not knowing what it is. Ken's systematic process (outline, draft, review, rewrite) has helped me know what to do next. I feel I accomplish much more each time I sit down to write because the goals are more defined and realistic. His meticulous approach to characters, research, and plot fits my personal outlook and inspires me to be more detailed in my own process.”

“After attending numerous writing conferences and workshops over the years, I've reached a point where I'm no longer learning as many new writing skills or techniques. However, Ken Follett's Maestro course taught me new things about writing and sparked so many ideas for my work-in-progress that I'll be watching the course again.”

“Applying his experience from many years, Mr. Follett is thorough and engaging in describing how to write popular fiction. He not only shares techniques, he shares his personal experiences, what worked and what didn't work. Mr. Follett makes it easy to learn the necessary skills to produce a good book. The course is worth the time and the money.”

“I have self published 10 books and with my eleventh plan to pitch to an agent. I want my writing to be the best it can be. I was particularly taken with Ken Follett's in-depth outline method and how he road tests it with various interested parties before even starting to write the actual novel. I tend to know the beginning and the end of my stories, but have an unscripted adventure along the way to find out how my characters get to their destinies. Although this has worked well for me, I have not yet written a bestseller (I came close once). Now, I'm aiming to write a comprehensive outline for my next book, using the wisdom from this course, in hopes I get that life-changing acceptance letter from a professional in the book world.
Listening to Ken Follett was, just like in his books, never boring. Nothing was wasted; everything had a point and a purpose and he was very generous with his time, his notes, and his task-giving.
I feel inspired at a point in my own career when I was close to giving up. Thank you, Ken Follett, you have given me the oomph I needed to keep going. I, like you, love to write. It's a compulsion I share and a discipline I need in my life in order to be happy. If I can write a bestseller, then I would be very happy indeed. Thanks for the course, and thanks for the books, both of which I enjoyed immensely.”
