Creative writing is any form of writing that expresses thoughts and ideas in an imaginative way; it could be an epic science fiction novel set in an imaginary galaxy, it could be a romantic comedy set in modern-day New York, it can be flash fiction for online publication or anything in between. With creative writing, you’re in control and you’ve got the freedom to decide where your story goes.

So whether you’re totally new to creative writing or you’ve experimented with some creative writing already and need some direction, sign up to this free taster session to get started with developing your writing and find out more about how we can support you on your creative writing journey, no matter what level you’re at right now.

  • Have a go at responding to a creative prompt
  • Experiment with different planning techniques to see what works for you
  • Produce a short piece of flash fiction to take away with you.
