About this course

Always wondered if you’ve got it in you to be a creative writer. Do you want to write about your inner life, feelings, and experiences; or do you want to write the story of friends and family? Do you want to explain or entertain? Would you like the vocabulary to describe beautiful scenery …. or just the best fishing trip ever? The wedding that went disastrously wrong or wonderfully right? Maybe you just want to become confident in spelling, grammar and punctuation. Or just the opportunity for a chat and a laugh with likeminded people! By completing this course, you will explore the world of creative writing and how to begin with putting pen to paper. No previous writing experience is required.

What you will need to bring to the course:

Notebook and pen
