“Excellent insight into an exceptional author’s mind. The workings of her incredible stories are inspirational. It’s worth listening to the course even if you don’t want to write a book. Just to listen to the wonderful stories, a view into a rich and interesting life, always worth our time. Engaging and enjoyable, it has filled my mind with ideas and brightened my days”

“I had thought this would be about writing fantasy fiction, which isn't really the case, but the content is useful for any sort of writing, I learned a lot about how to use everything you come across for inspiration, how to start a story, that it's okay to change pretty much anything if the plot evolves in a way you hadn't planned, how to build characters and that you need to trust editors.
Even if you have no intention of ever writing more than a post-it note, the course is interesting and entertaining. Isabel Allende is an engaging and amusing tutor, now I feel I have to try reading one of her books!”

“Hello, my name is Brian. I am halfway through Isabel Allende's course called Magical Storytelling. This accomplished and largely self-taught author gives the student the guidance, framework and direction to write fiction. The lessons are short (each lesson than 20 minutes) and packed with knowledge and practical guidance on what to do and what NOT to do when writing fiction. A lifetime of writing experience (28 novels to date) flows through each lesson and the teaching is rich and delivered with a warmth and humanity that keeps you fully focussed. The exercises set are practical and take further along the path of writing.”
