This module will introduce you to the practice of creative writing through encounters with classic and contemporary literature. Through close readings of short stories and short form poetry, you will explore a rich range of texts by established writers and then work towards producing your own writing inspired by a diverse range of literary voices.
Focusing on understanding literature, generating ideas, openings, voice, style, rhythm, dialogue and other essential components, the module serves as an introduction to the subject of creative writing and a developmental workshop where you can shape your own practice through active responses to texts of short fiction and poetry.
