Class
I enjoyed the classes. I learned to write better and more concisely. Our mini-workshop at the end of the class was helpful and interesting. I liked seeing other people’s works and learning from them. I’d love to take another class. – Eniola Adeeko
It was awesome. I learned a lot about writing flash fiction. The teacher was very good in that aspect and gave us concise lessons. He assessed us and constructively critiqued our work. – Ezioma Kalu
It was thorough and practical. – Mhembeuter Jeremiah Orhemba
