Description
Our unique programme offers two pathways:
1. Creative Writing (Fiction)
This explores the world of contemporary fiction through a programme of critical
seminars and creative writing workshops where we focus on your own writing. Writers studied recently include Peter Carey, Jonathan Safran Foer, Jane Gardam, Grace Paley, Rose Tremain and William Trevor. Past students have published successful novels and stories.
2. Creative Writing (Science Fiction and Fantasy)
It is an exciting new offering with no direct equivalent in the UK. Students explore the wide-ranging possibilities of science fiction and fantasy, reaching a deeper understanding of both contemporary and classic fiction in the genre and writing their own original work. We also look at the science fiction and fantasy publishing scene.
