Here is what past Flash Fiction Boot Camp participants had to say:
"This workshop gave me a chance to spend two weeks working with a professional editor, and getting daily feedback on my writing. If you've ever tired of the flood of impersonal rejection slips, this workshop will cure you of those blues, that's for sure."
--Leland Thoburn
"The line-edited critique of my story alone made this course worth participating in. Two weeks of hard work, but instructive."
--Roger Suchy
"Daily exercises, with personal attention from two editors, make this a course not to be missed. The line editing of my story was of great value, and made me understand why it had been rejected in the past. I feel that my work has been pointed in a new direction and I am very grateful to Jennifer and Elizabeth for the time and effort they have put into running this course."
--Philippa Bower
"Editing was my weakness, and it really gave me an understanding of what editors are looking for in a story."
--Dawn Allison
"I got focused, honest feedback on my work from talented editors and writers; gained insight on the art and craft of flash fiction, and polished a story, thanks to the workshop, that is now marketable. What would I say to other writers about Boot Camp? Just do it!"
--Jan Smith
"There is no doubt in my mind that anyone who takes this course will take his or her writing to the next level. Not only will it hone flash fiction skills, but it will add clarity and precision to any literary category."
