Patrick Barry has put together a terrific series of courses! Skills in the nuances of writing, organizing complex ideas, planning, how to get around 'blocks' and get started. Well worth it!
It is an inspiration learning from Prof Barry. He knows his stuff. He is very well-read and he actually motivates me to read wide too.
Really great writing course with lots of real world examples and great context given. Would absolutely recommend to a friend.
I have taken a writing course before, but Patrick Berrys' course has made me change my writing significantly for the better.
