Creative Writing
Bishop Otter Campus, United Kingdom
We believe in creating a community of writers who can support and learn from one another. Our specialist workshopping sessions give you the confidence to discuss you work, receive feedback and reflect on your own work by helping others. Our MA Creative Writing course focuses on writing as a craft. It provides you a strong platform to develop your writing as you experiment with the wide range of possibilities available to the contemporary writer. You will have the opportunity to develop your skills in writing prose fiction (the novel or short story), poetry, creative non-fiction (biography, autobiography, memoir, travel), film scripts or drama for the stage or radio. You may want to work on one project, such as a novel, throughout the course, or you may wish to explore different genres; the course allows for both options. You will learn through a combination of seminar discussion, writing exercises and workshops. In the intensive MA workshops, you will typically discuss good writing practice and workshop your own writing. Our commitment to smaller class sizes allows you to feel more confident to discuss your ideas in a supportive environment. It also allows your tutors to get to know you and how best to aid your development. In addition to taught sessions by MA staff and talks by visiting writers, students will also benefit from two masterclasses a year by our visiting Professors, novelist Kate Mosse and novelist and short story writer Alison MacLeod.
