"I just finished this course, and it is, by far, one of the best lessons on idea generation I've ever put to use. I have pages of ideas now. Once they started coming, they won't stop. Along with the high-concept ideas, they have also translated into other writing ideas that pop into my head at odd times, such as snippets of dialog or some scene, or event that I have to write down. With all these ideas popping up, I'm spending more time writing those down than choosing and working on one as a novel."
