Creative Writing Course
Undertaking the Creative Writing course run by Diny gave me the ability and confidence to put down on paper the stories and words that I had never been able to bring to life. It enabled me to write two books and I continue to write with so much pleasure now my creative talent has been ignited. I will always be grateful to Diny for enabling me to achieve a lifelong ambition.

Mentoring
I have known Diny for a few years now, she first came to my rescue after I had finished my first novel. Diny's help was amazing and she taught me so much about writing, phrasing punctuation and general good writing skills. She is a fountain of knowledge and expertise. I probably wouldn't have got published without Diny let alone have my short stories aired on the radio. Thank you Diny for all your help.

Group Mentoring
Diny was introduced to our creative writing group by a member who'd previously worked with her to self-publish a book. Diny was embraced as our mentor and source of steadiness and inspiration, helping us find our way as we crafted our work and gained confidence. She gave us helpful writing exercises from a book she's written, such as example creating the back story to a larger piece of work, to show details of its origins and the character's history. We faced the challenge of creating flash fiction and setting rhyming schemes in a rondeau, using the pattern followed by John McCraely, 'In Flanders Fields'. Diny is conscientious and pays careful attention to detail, coherence and flow. Thank you so much Diny, you have helped Ladies Wot Write meet our goal of becoming independently published.
