What our Members Say About Our Courses
I've never felt so welcome and valued in a course before. Both teachers and students were so graceful towards one another from start to finish.
I enjoyed this course very much, and it has helped give me new things to think about when crafting my own work, regardless of genre. Thanks so much for putting it together!
One of the things I most wanted to improve was the scare factor and intense scenes, really building up that fear. And I thought the class helped with that a ton!
