Has anyone come across ‘immersed in story course’?

[Sarah]

I’ve just come across ‘Immersed in story course’ by Anne Helmstadter which claims to not only help you plot you novel but determine if your story will sell even before you’ve started writing.

I was just wondering if anyone on here has tried it, and if so whether you would recommend it.

Hi, Sarah!

Oddly enough, I've never heard of this book before. Can you share the link to it, as well as the author's profile on Goodreads here? If possible, I'd like to contact her and see if she can divulge more information about her book and how it might help us.

Hi Ross,

It seems to be an online course. Link below:

I thought it sounded interesting, but this day and age it's hard to tell what is a scam and what isn't.

Hi again, Sarah!

Thanks for sharing this link with me. I'll check it out, come tomorrow, as I have other business to attend to, today. One such thing is the preparation of my first giveaway on here!

Let me know if you plan to enter. Here's the event-link:

I am curious as to whether either of you used this course, and what you think of it.

Thanks.

I’ve been researching this (Google reviews of “Immersed in Story” by Anne Helmstadter) and found this…

These are the only two certain testimonial users I can find on Amazon who've got books out.

It doesn't look like a scam, but it seems going only off the testimonials that people are finding it useful. Whether or not it's more or less useful than any other book or course about writing I suppose only the users can really vouch for, because it's hard to verify how successful the users are any other way.

$37 isn't a bad price, and a whole year to refund if it's crap, well, that's pretty good.

Soooooo.... have any of you tried this?

I'm seriously thinking about trying it. The price is pretty good.
