I've spent the whole day watching these lessons and taking notes. Follett is a great teacher, warm and engaging, with lots of clear examples to illustrate his points. Highly recommended.

The segments were just a bit long, attention (mine at least) worn off after a while. Other than that it was most interesting and craftily done.

Excellent! Very helpful for giving advice drawing from his own writing experience. All down to earth, sincere and honest advice. I've learnt a lot from his lessons.

I am loving Ken Follett's course and to be honest, will be quite sad when it concludes. I had previously done Isabel Allende's course (she's an author I've read), and despite not having read any of Mr Follett's books (a mistake I will correct immediately!) - it didn't matter. His advice applies to everyone doing any genre of writing. It was inspired to have guests in some of the lessons to elucidate further, and how generous to share beyond writing tips, to explain his process and what works for him as an author. I really cannot rate this course high enough - I have found it invaluable and so enouraging. Now I'm off to bury myself in 'The Pillars of the Earth'! Do the course...you'll learn, you'll enjoy, you'll maybe discover a new favourite author.

Of the courses I have taken on this excellent programme, Ken Follett's is by far the most detailed and intense. Mr Follett takes us through his way of writing a novel in great depth, introducing us to a depth of method that I hadn't imagined and it is a great insight into the way a professional writer may need to work. An excellent course full of hard-earned knowledge from an expert in his field.

Mr. Follett is an engaging speaker and shared helpful insights and valuable encouragement in every lesson. I enjoyed how she drew examples from authors he admires as well as from his own work.

Incredible intensive with Ken. It doesn't matter what genre you are writing, Ken's Maestro Class is exceptional in learning more about the craft of writing fiction. In particular, his wisdom and expertise, shared with such generosity of spirit, in writing about character/s. Ken has such a warm and witty manner in his delivery and such a gentlemanly approach to sharing his writing process. I highly recommend this course, if you are serious about writing quality fiction.
