Who would not wish to be a published author? This course provides an introduction to creative writing of various kinds, chiefly short fiction and poetry, in a workshop situation in which recent and, in particular, contemporary writing, made available in a reading brick, will be critically analysed and, where appropriate, used as a model. Stylistic diversity will be encouraged and the workshop will ensure close discussion of, and feedback on, student work. The course will include some consideration of the practical process of publishing.
