What They Say About Bobbie’s Courses

“The icing on the cake was a one on one with Bobbie to discuss our assignment. This was a fantastic learning session for me, great analysis and feedback.”

David Howarth, UK

“Thank you so much for the feedback on my assignment. I was so encouraged by your sweet disposition, and you did it with so much grace. Your course was so enlightening. The angle you took was so relevant to help me think through why I was writing my book. I had so much fear and was overwhelmed with the thought of writing, but your course clarified many things. I gained the confidence to move forward. May God bless your efforts in helping seasoned writers and new writers like myself.”

Matilda Phiri, USA

“Bobbie Ann Cole is simply outstanding in how creatively she applies Bible principles and closely connects them with the writing process. Bobbie is a master of her craft. She knows how to teach people and bring to the surface their creative juices and their unshakable purpose for what they wish to write about. Not only is she amazing as a teacher but also the system she has in place makes it so easy for everyone to stay focused and organized. If you have a story to birth, Bobbie Ann Cole is your person to go to.”

Anila Coniku-Nicklos, USA

“Bobbie Ann Cole (is) a classy lady who is very down-to-earth and practical. She encourages writers to write. Her course reminded me that writing is a calling, that the book idea in my head may be God’s idea. She says, ‘Don’t let obstacles hinder. Honor God with your best work.”

Dana McKee, USA

“My biggest obstacle is myself. My excuses are no different from those given by Moses, Gideon, or Jeremiah when God called them. I should respond like Mary: ‘Behold, I am the servant of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word.’”

Kabwe WK Benaya, Canada

“I was encouraged and inspired to continue pursuing the call on my life to write and feel more able to identify some of the challenges I may face and overcome them.”

Sarah Dawes, UK

“Your course was a huge revelation for me. The pressure is off me, and I can now stop striving.”

Robert Miranda, India
