Creative Writing for Improvers Short Course

Each week we'll look at one aspect of writing prose fiction such as introducing character, plot, point of view, metaphor and style, showing not telling, and genre. We'll do writing exercises in class and discuss writerly technique through the analysis of short stories and novel extracts.

You'll have the opportunity to workshop your writing once or twice during the 11 weeks to receive feedback from your peers and tutor.

You'll be given a dossier of short stories and novel excerpts at the start of the course.
