AK gave us plenty of examples and resources to help us see how we can develop content for our own newsletters, how this can help us with finding our ideal readers, and in how to find and build our audience for our newsletters. She was also very prompt in giving feedback whenever I had questions or submitted copy for a sample newsletter. I recommend this class to anyone interested in developing their own newsletter to help build their brand as an author.
The lessons were very short compared to other similarly priced courses I've taken with Savvy Authors. The topics seemed to address generalities and we didn't drill into craft examples as I'd come to expect from other Savvy Authors' courses. I've learned much more on the subject from other sources.
I love the Flash Fiction contests. I think it's a great concept and a good exercise to help writers practice ideation and execution quickly. My only complaint was the utter lack of participation. Not only were there only 3 participants, but also only 4 votes. Meaning that if we don't count the 3 participants, since we can assume they all voted, there was literally one person who took the time to vote. Hopefully they at least read all the stories and didn't just vote for their friend's entry. But even if that's not the case, it doesn't address the fact that the entire contest hinged on literally one person's preferences. Something needs to be done to get more participation and voting.

Thanks, TM! We appreciate your feedback. We were also hoping for more participation and votes, but unfortunately we didn't receive it this time around. We are hoping it's just summer busy-ness!
I found a picture, rather than words make it difficult to follow the prompt. I ended up having to make a part 2 to a story I had written from words prompt.

Hi Ruchama! Sorry for any confusion. We used an image instead of words. That was what was used when we ran the event previously and we had great feedback. Sorry for the image prompt didn't work for you.
Very useful lessons, exercises and personal feedback. I gained much from registering.
