Introduction to Creative Writing

What will you learn on this course?

This course is designed to introduce you to the world of creative writing. The tutor will explain how to create material using writing techniques such as Free Writing and Clustering. By examining of the work of published writers you will learn about techniques such as:

  • Writers’ ‘hook’

  • Use of place

  • Archetypes

  • Diary writing

  • Poetic writing

  • Film premise

  • Characterisation

You will be encouraged to develop some of these techniques in your own writing and explore the idea that writing is a process for continued development. Through this exploration, the tutor aims to make you feel motivated to continue your work at home.

The course may involve some group work and collaborative writing. Students will have the opportunity to share their work and receive feedback in a positive and supportive environment.

By the end of the course everyone will have several pieces of their own writing along with hand-outs on the taught topics for further consideration and development.
