Good afternoon mumsnetters!

As it says in the title really, can any recommend a course/provider?

Im not bothered about it being a 'qualification' but something run by a reputable company. I don't want to spend a fortune but happy to pay for a better service than the free ones I've looked at.

Oh & any to avoid??

Thanks in advance 🙂📚

I did Curtis Brown creative. It didn’t tell me anything I didn’t already know, and I felt like I’d spaffed over a grand just to comment on other people’s work. However, one of my classmates got an agent and a book deal off the back of it, so it works for some people!

Keep an eye on https://www.writelikeagrrrl.org/ I think they'll start advertising their online courses again towards the end of the summer. I did the five week ignite and inspire courses and found them really helpful. Price tag was under £200 for each course
