Class Test

These testimonials are from people who have taken my character development classes. They are based on the book, Dynamic Characters by Nancy Kress. The questions require the students to dig deeper into the background of their characters and to determine what shaped the character's attitudes and motivations.

Testimonial from Writers –

Nikki Leigh was the facilitator in three classes I took through Writer's Village University, an online writing organization. She provided motivation, specific examples in writing exercises, and encouraged innovation in my writing endeavors. Also patient with obvious mistakes, she tactfully made suggestions to improve the writing and the story.

From someone who was hesitant about writing as most writers are, I am now working on a story. I hope can be developed into a book. Nikki showed patience and enthusiasm in all three classes. I would highly recommend her as she's a natural teacher.

Nikki created and facilitated an outstanding series of three Character Development workshops that I particpated in. The lessons were well thought out and helpful, and her comments were right on! I would happily recommend, as well as participate, in any other classes Nikki develops and teaches.

The lessons have truly widened the minds and emotions of my characters. Thank you for formulating such an unusual method of getting into their beings.
It's a whole lot of hard work, but it's also wonderful.

I plan on taking your course again when it is offered. You do make me think.

Thank you, Nikki.

I took a series of three classes on fiction writing facilitated by Nikki. She made herself readily available to the class, critiqued our lessons in a helpful and constructive way. She provided valuable resources and guidance in improving our writing skills. I learned so much from Nikki that I was able to write twenty chapters of a first novel during the three months of her classes, thanks to her guidance and support. I recently had the opportunity to once again be involved in a fiction writing class with Nikki. She is conscientious and meticulous in her research and always willing to help her fellow writers. I highly recommend her as an excellent facilitator. Sincerely, Connie Walker

You have always wanted to be a published author. You made it! You book was accepted by a publisher but you found out that they do NOT spend a lot of time and money publicizing or marketing the book of first time authors. What do you do?

You can take a marketing course, but which one?

Demystifying the Basics of Book Promotion by Nikki Leigh is one of the most comprehensive and clearly devised classes available. Nikki has a proven track record in the world of marketing and entrepreneurship. She is the partner or owner/operator of at least 3 successful businesses that I know of, as well as being a published author.

Nikki's a whiz at marketing and business management. Check out her S & C Consulting firm at http://www.sandcconsulting.com/business_services.htm. I have known Nikki for several years and have enjoyed her on-line company and business savvy. She has made many suggestions and given me tips along the way that have been invaluable to me as an author. Although I have never taken any of Nikki’s classes, we have some peers in common. I have heard only rave reviews about her classes, knowledge, and know how from her other students.
