Module overview

This is a two-semester module that runs weekly. All students taking the MA Creative Writing will join this workshop which provides the central spine for the entire programme. The substance of the workshop is a discussion of a selection of your writing in terms of its achievement of its declared aims, and its progress beyond earlier drafts. You will also be encouraged to develop your literary and historical awareness. The workshop provides a forum for the presentation and discussion of work in progress by all students. You will be encouraged to develop skills in critical reading and listening to the work of your peers, as well as to test your own developing abilities as creative writers through the presentation of your own work and analysing the work of others.
