“Ken Follett puts flesh to the theory. Every author knows show don't tell, and although I believe that I have learned a lot in the past five to six years, with all the examples Ken Follett gives I now get a deeper feeling for what a bestselling story is all about. Thank you very much, Sir. Sincerely Yours”

“Great presentation with valuable insights and advice often sharing his own personal stories and thoughts at the time of writing. This is my third BBCMaestro course on writing and it is this one that has encouraged me to go back again for another edit on my manuscript before sending it to any more agents. Thanks Ken.”

“At first I wasn’t sure but as he went along he helped me realized the importance of my research and how people like to learn something about history. That changed my frustration of thinking I had too much research. Now I can weave it into the story. I loved him!!! I think I would do well with an outline. It may help me move my writing faster. He also gave me an idea about history of women’s right to vote in 1915 and how I can use it for the serial killlers of that time although they really don’t know of serial killers in that time other then Jack the Ripper.”
“Good classes, but horrible software.
I use a Samsung S24 Plus, and the video lessons keep restarting and behaving strangely all the time. It feels like BBC Maestro did not have money for beta testers.
Maestro should have been properly tested before being pushed out to the market, especially when the service is this expensive.
And one more thing I forgot to mention: Chromecast does not work properly either. It is so unstable that I have basically stopped using it.”
