What are others saying about the course?

Full disclosure: The following feedback is from writers who were given a free trial to the course.

Your class, Novel to Published Author, has been very insightful and self-affirming. It is insightful, because I learned the importance of having a polished manuscript ready, no matter how good I think my manuscript is or how well I can envision my novel to sell. In order to get the best results, any novel in any genre, must be at it’s best in order to achieve success. I enjoy reading the content on the links that the lessons provide. The tasks are beneficial because I can either mull them over, mentally; record them in a file, and print/review them as needed, and on my own timeline.
