What Others Have Said

Just What I Wanted
By: staceylcummings

This class was wonderful. I had used Scrivener before but it was a long time ago on a prior version. I was jumping around on youtube and blogs trying to grasp version 3 changes and wasting too much time. This course gave me everything I needed to know to get started. Gwen is a professional teacher. Everything is organized and easy to understand. She stays on track with the topics and replies to questions you enter in the comments. You will be up and running when you finish this course!

Generous Course
By: Nev Jones

I'll never be as much of an expert as Gwen Hernandez, but she is never mean about sharing her knowledge. A most helpful and easy-to-follow course.

Enjoyable
By: Stewart Connell

I enjoyed the course and will continue to refer to it. I intend doing the Scrivener 3 Mastery for Windows course but maybe not immediately. I may get some more experience of using Scrivener first.

A Very Helpful Class
By: Francis Szarejko

Outstanding course. Well structured, easy to follow, and enough detail to make it easy to understand without being overwhelming. I feel much more confident using Scrivener 3 for Windows.
