“I have worked with Phil Pride for upwards of twenty years and I know of no one in the writing and publishing business who is better equipped to talk about and teach the art and craft of writing”
“Philippa takes publishing expertise, coaching excellence and pure passion and weaves them into an informative, energising and inspiring [course]”
“It is difficult to imagine a writing coach who could strike a better balance than Philippa does between motivating, supporting, challenging, and encouraging her writers in such a way that they weave words and create works that go beyond even their own expectations. Perhaps part of Philippa’s magic is that she is not a writer and, therefore, creates a safe environment with neutral and wise insight to help a writer realize his or her best and truest voice”
“I had forgotten what a joy it is to write...Philippa’s unique talent in encouraging and supporting every individual on this wonderful course is unsurpassed”
