Fantastic courses with an incredible amount of information. As good quality as any uni course.

I enjoyed Valerie's openness and big heartedness to share her hard-won experiences. The day-to-day practical advice.

This course has all the business information you need to embark on your freelance writing career and I highly recommend it.

It was informative but didn't require too much of me. This was important as I have my fingers in many pies at the moment so it's nice to be able to fit the learning around my busy life, rather than feeling I'm dropping balls everywhere!

I really enjoyed it. I have set up my ABN and enrolled in more (a lot more!) AWC courses to give me plenty of exposure in my early days as a freelancer to give me the best chance of success.

I really can become a freelance writer; it was a secret dream before. I am super logical (I was a financial planner before having kids) but I am loving using a more creative part of my brain and I am learning that my research and previous corporate experiences will help me in my freelance writing career.

I enjoyed receiving the resources. They reassured me. I realised I was already on the right track. It was a moment that built my confidence.

In just a matter of weeks, not just my writing but my approach to my writing has changed in so many ways. Seriously, you won't regret taking a course with AWC. The mentors are so encouraging and knowledgeable. They pull no punches. They offer no get rich quick schemes. Just honest know-how with gentle reminders that you have to put in the work, and the tools that you can use to build your writing career.

Valerie has so much knowledge to give and does so in such a warm and welcoming manner. She gave very clear information and advice. I have the tools and confidence I need to get started.

I enjoyed receiving guidance from someone with real experience. I feel like it removed some of the barriers in my mind that have prevented me from pitching.

The course is short and informative. A lot of information is packed into small videos that can be watched at once or spread out.

I really appreciate the 'insider' comments/anecdotes and true stories as told by Valerie. I enjoyed the positivity of the presenter and the valuable information provided in the Modules.

It has 'enthused' me to write and achieve some enjoyable additional income.

Follow your dreams/goals and have a go!

The course has given me insight in starting a writing business and the difference between content writing and corporate writing.

I would recommend this course to anyone that wants a career change into freelance writing.
