In reply to Kevin. Kevin is spot-on here. A friend recommended the competition. Delighted and impressed by the chutzpah on display in the entry rules (I'm a corporate attorney), I ran to master Google expecting warnings in flashing lights. Nope, not much out there. So I'll echo Kevin: MasterClass itself seems well worth the fee. Competition? No. Why would a company arrogate all rights in perpetuity, as the competition company does here? This little Internet acting class production shop cannot possibly be set up to exploit these disparate rights. Perhaps it's to ransom any rights that later prove to have some value? Whatever the thought process, it boils down to this: predation.

I signed up for JP’s Master Class about a year ago, after I got a contract with a small press publisher on book 1. It’s well worth the money, you own it for life and who can’t use a review every now and again? As for winning..meh, I’ve got about a gazillion to one chance. But that’s why I’m commenting here. You can help me solidify my book concept into a best selling submission anyway. LOL!

This is the second time I’ve heard about James Patterson’s Master Class! It’s now officially being added to my must take classes on writing. As you’ve said, even if you don’t read his books, you can’t deny he has a wealth of knowledge and success in writing. I don’t tend to read Stephen King but found his book “On Writing” to be a must-read for any writer. Thank you for suggesting this class!

In reply to Kitty Bucholtz. Yeah….*hangs head* I am a bit embarrassed about my typo, but technically if you do the WRITTEN exercises too, I probably hit the time about right :D .

In reply to Author Kristen Lamb. Can you imagine 22 HOURS of lessons?! LOL! That would be awesome! But I've been super excited about all the new little tricks I've gotten just from the first 15 lessons, despite publishing for a few years. It's great stuff no matter what. :-) Thanks, Kristen!
