Course description
This course for adults is suited to those with some experience of creative writing – prose, poetry or memoir. Regular optional homework tasks will help us to establish an effective writing routine, and promote the building of a portfolio of writing. The focus will be on prose forms, particularly short story and flash fiction, but experiments with style are encouraged. The emphasis is on enjoyment, and finding your own style in a friendly and positive group environment.
