‘I was delighted with the material provided. It taught me a great deal about writing, bringing me out of my comfort zone and stretching my imagination. The feedback on my assignments was excellent. The tutors were helpful, friendly and encouraging and halfway through this course I had my first article published. I highly recommend The Writers’ Block and found it to be excellent value.’

‘When I first began The Writer’s Block in 2003 I said somewhat reluctantly, “I’ll have a go at your poetry exercises but I am no poet.” Much to my surprise and delight I have become a published poet and discovered great joy in this pursuit. Recently my poems have appeared in Obsessed with Pipework, Rialto and Orbis. I am now embarking on your new course, Correspondences.’
