Learner Reviews & Feedback for Creative Writing: The Craft of Character by Wesleyan University

Really great video examples and writing prompts. Peer reviews have been insightful and I've enjoyed reading other's work. Great series so far!

I love the professor. Her tips and lessons and also the assignments.. They were quite challenging and took time to understand.. but I loved it

Great exercises that are very effective. A well-taught course with clever instruction designed to get you to the heart of writing character.

I really enjoyed this course. I learned a lot about how to put my characters into writing instead of letting them float around in my head.

Wonderful! Very informative. Filled with examples, literature and very interesting interviews! Thank you so much! You're a great teacher!

I truly enjoyed this course, Amy Bloom's way a teaching opened my eyes to a lot of new information, and the excercises were very useful.

Really loved this course but the assignment instructions could be simplified. I cut and pasted them then added bullets to sort them out.

I loved the assignments. They were the right amount of challenge and really enjoyed the instructor. Really helped me grow as a writer!

Very helpful course. I am a beginning writer, and the information and the assignments showed me how to form and develop characters.

Excellent course. It regenerated my creativity which is what I hoped for and it cleared up some confusion I had about point of view.

Very good content. Very well thought out. I like the divisions and the assignments are a real match for the whole table of content.

This gave me a new perspective on Character and I believe it will help my characters become more true to life than they have been.

Really useful materials and exercises, working through the question of characterisation in a systematic and thought-provoking way.

Is too bad that for those who can't pay can't be evaluated on the assignments. But the whole course is very good and interesting!

The course is very interesting.

I learnt a lot in it.

It has got very interesting interviews and assignments.

Very useful for me!

I am learning a lot, particularly that I can write up to several thousand words per day; not just words, but meaningful words.

Supremely challenging in a terrific way. Amy Bloom top notch. Student reviews tremendously helpful. Try it. You lose nothing!

I learnt so much about the developing of characters and Week 4 about Point of view is incredible. Glad to take this course.

The session was very indulging and lucid. I felt at very ease learning from Ms. Amy. Just an amazing experience overall.

A pleasure to have learned under such accomplished writers and teachers. Thank you. A beautifully well conducted course.

Really great advice on writing character. I have a toolkit I can use now that I think is quite powerful. Thanks Amy.

This course challenged me and my process for developing characters. It provided me new perspectives on how to do that.

This course was teaching us how a charactar can be brought to life by letters by various magical techniques.Thank you

Learning a lot, improving my writing, enjoying the assignments, and meeting new people. What a wonderful experience.

I find the information very helpful, and the exercises illuminating. Thank you for making these courses available.
