If you are a writer like me than you need this course

I listened to all fifty of these iTunes U podcasts in one sitting. It was that good! Each episode is concise and without fluff. Overall, I learned a great deal more about the craft of writing than I had known before. It also echoed many of the strategies I’ve learned about in the past but have forgotten. It’s always great to have a refresher. Thanks Roy!

Thank you!
