Media Reviews
I think it's a great book. The tone strikes a good balance between chatty and knowledgeable. It's definitely a book I could use with my students. The layout of each chapter works as a lesson plan - a presentation, with examples, followed by practical exercises. -- Robin Gott, creative writing teacher, Sweden
Your Creative Writing Masterclass distills some of the most incisive wisdom of the literary greats, helping to guide modern-day authors who wish to write fiction well, and to better understand the career and lifestyle of a professional author -- Michael J. Ross, writer - www.ross.ws
A wonderful resource for both individual writers, and for writing groups. It helps writers feel that even when sitting alone at their desks, they are not alone. Opening this book, they access the wisdom of great writers, and the practical help and advice from Jurgen Wolff, a generous and constructive writing companion. -- Julie Everton, award winning playwright and Creative Writing and Screenwriting teacher, University of Brighton
With Mr Wolff's help, your reading can become truly productive. * Writing Magazine *
