Become accomplished in the art of short story writing - quickly and with minimal effort. After four simple lessons you'll be ready to submit stories for the popular magazine market, or for entry into the more prestigious competitions. Earn money from your writing - Jacqui Bennett can show you how. Let Jacqui take you step by step, from the creation of your idea, right through to the perfect presentation of your manuscript. Here's how it works:

Send Jacqui a short story of up to 2,500 words, by e-mail attachment. Within ten days, you will receive a detailed critique, together with a suggested theme for your second piece of work. When this has been read and critiqued by Jacqui, you will then have the opportunity to have two further stories professionally assessed (i.e. four stories in all), culminating in a final overall report on your progress, plus guidelines on how to present your manuscripts for submission to editors. During your course, you will learn about characterisation, plotting, dialogue and structure in simple, everyday terms. In short, you will get an insider's view on how to succeed.

And it doesn't stop there. From the start, you'll have an experienced editor and well-published short story writer (She Magazine, Woman's Weekly, Woman's Realm and many, many more) helping you on a one-to-one basis, teaching you the tips and tricks of writing for the lucrative popular market. And when your Mini Course is over, Jacqui will still be there for you to consult, any time you need help and advice throughout your continuing writing career.

The cost of this Mini Course is only £55. Click here to pay by credit card. Alternatively, send a cheque (made payable to Jenny Hewitt, please) to this address. The receipt of your payment will be acknowledged promptly by e-mail. There is no need to wait for your cheque to arrive, simply email your short story as soon as you are ready to do so and Jacqui can make a head start on assessing it.
