Creative Writing - Keep Writing
Come and enjoy a whistle stop tour through the wonderful world of creative writing. Six, stand-alone workshops, including: six-word stories, poetry, drama, creative non-fiction, romance and crime. We’ll consider how the different genres interconnect, discuss the conventions and techniques of each, and what we can learn to improve our writing in whichever style we choose. We’ll use lots of discussion, study some examples and carry out writing activities in a friendly atmosphere with like-minded people. If you are looking for a new genre to try, or simply want to broaden your writing knowledge, this could be the course for you.
