David Farland’s writing courses gave me the tools to build my writing
career. I wrote the first chapter of *The Brass Queen* as a worldbuilding
exercise in the *Story Puzzle* class. Dave’s kind words of encouragement
inspired me to expand that exercise into an entire novel. As I worked
through Dave’s courses, I learned how to create unforgettable characters,
thrilling plotlines, and emotionally resonant themes. I also gained an
insider’s perspective of the publishing industry that helped me to become a
traditionally published author. Dave shared the tools to build my rocket
ship and pointed me toward the stars. I couldn't have wished for a better
launch!
