I found the Creative Writing course at Stanmore School of Business to be quite informative and engaging. The course covered a wide range of topics, from character development to plot structure, and provided many practical tips and techniques for improving my writing. I appreciated the variety of course materials, including video lectures, readings, and writing exercises. One of the most useful skills I gained was the ability to create believable dialogue, which has been a challenge for me in the past. While I didn't have as much time to dedicate to the course as I would have liked, I still felt like I got a lot out of it and would recommend it to others.
