Writing Popular Fiction with Lee Child Reviews

There are some things I do not like about Maestro - The notes can only be read on the screen easily, whereas if you export them as pdf or copy and paste into a Word program, every line comes out with a paragraph code at the end. I wanted to have a printable pdf so that I could underline and make notes and keep in a binder. But when you print a typical page out from your notes, the text is so small and not even in black but some sort of grey that makes it hard to read. I don't believe your people have ever printed out the notes to read. Another complaint is I don't like to have to see one of your ads on the screen advertising to get friends, when I'm viewing the video.

I’ve been an English teacher for 20 years so teach creative writing as part of my job. I also like to write for my own creativity. Lee’s course was interesting and got into the nitty gritty of writing as well as aspects of publishing. He broke down so many of the inexplicable parts of narrative fiction to make them easy to explain to someone else, or easy to apply to your own fiction. Highly recommend.

This is a brilliant course - really conversational and easy to listen to - you don’t need to “watch” as such so it’s perfect for travelling. There’s sufficient repetition that you don’t need to take notes - it’s just like an extremely informative chat with one of the worlds greatest fiction writers- what a privilege.

What an absolute privelige to have access to the wealth of knowledge, insight and experience of Lee Child. A totally absorbing journey through the whole process of creating successful fiction in today's market. Lee is a natural orator who presents the material in a modest, undramatic and accessible style. I was quite disappointed when I'd completed the whole course; I could listen to this guy all day!

He’s a very genuine person, but the course is a bit meandering. A tighter schedule with tips that are more focused on practical skills would be more helpful.
