Stories are at the heart of how we communicate and understand the world. Through this course, you’ll gain the skills to join the next generation of creative storytellers.

These days, creative writing is becoming just as integral to arts and entertainment as it is to business and commerce.

A career in creative writing could see you working in publishing, a literary agency or in education – and that’s just the start. Whether you want to create poems, film scripts or children’s fiction, we’ll help you turn writing into a career.

You’ll learn to draw inspiration from existing literature, before developing your own voice. Through a range of exciting projects, you’ll explore the whole writing process – from research to editing.

With visits from published writers and industry professionals, you’ll be able to explore career opportunities and build contacts. Writers rarely work alone, so this course will give you the opportunity to collaborate with other courses. You might write scripts with animators or film-makers, or explore narratives with illustrators. When you graduate, you’ll have a strong portfolio and a professional experience.
