Welcome mate!

Because we go so far above and beyond what most people have experienced in an educational setting, let alone an online course, we get lots of wonderful testimonials.

Here are some from our picture book writing course followed by testimonials from our illustrating and middle grade novel writing students. And because I'm an Aussie, I shortened the very long word "Testimonials" to "Testies", which is shorter and cuter (we hope)!
