Thank you for this thoughtful and engaging course. I found it inspiring as well as informative, and I’ve started reading and writing poetry on a regular basis because of it.

Thorough & professionally delivered workshops that have enough content to inspire but not too much to overwhelm . I would love to ask Carol Ann Duffy a question. Is there anything that you wouldn’t write a poem about ?

The course I’d bet good. Carol Am Duffy is inspiring, what she says is interesting and the poems she uses as examples are a great source for further reading and thinking. However the Maestro app is very clunky and not at all intuitive. It can take far too to track down the course I’m doing and I keep getting messages to tell me to sign up - even though I’ve already paid. The poor quality of the app spoils the experience of following a course on Maestro. Other apps (eg all the ones on TV, BBC sounds, Apple Podcasts are much much better. Come on Maestro invest some money and time in the functionality of your app.

Really enjoying this course. Lots of useful ideas and prompts and it has made me start writing again. I really like having the course notes to refer to as well - an extra feature I didn't realise was there. Looking forward to completing the course.
