Easy Way to Write Short Stories That Sell
The lessons were broken down into logical units. I enjoyed the fact that I could access the units when it was convenient. I wished that there were more information sheets available. Otherwise, Rob presented valuable information in a personable fashion.

I’ve leaned a lot, thank you.
Writing Short Stories
Rob Parnell is a very talented and an enthusiastic teacher, who encourages his students to get in the action and get self-published. I am a published writer, but even so, I learned plenty from his advice. His ideas about setting up an idea sheet as a guideline will prove to be invaluable to me. Thank you, Rob Parnell!
Excellent Course!
Rob Parnell is a well-spoken writer who freely gives of his vast writing knowledge and expertise. This course is an excellent primer that also provides gems of advice to the more experienced writer. With the rah-rah and support that Rob lavished on me, I am ready to go and conquer the writing worlds awaiting me (or maybe just tilt at windmills, who knows?) Tally-ho, lads!
