"I'm happy to be connected to other people in this group. Taking part really helps me to write in a different way, in new styles. It's interesting and the group is fun. I like hearing other people's ideas. The most useful thing is having dedicated time to concentrate on writing during the workshop. I would definitely recommend these workshops, especially to people who are creative and to those who think and read a lot."

“Thank you so much for including my daughter in the creative writing course. She loved it so much. John is truly fantastic with children. His wonderfully funny but constructive personality had them all engaged and their creativity flowing! She is very excited for the next one.”​
