Write Around Town: Online Creative Writing Course with Shaun Levin
Fri 14 Sep 2018 to Fri 26 Oct 2018
Write Around Town is a practical and thought-provoking online writing course to deepen your understanding of place in both fiction and creative non-fiction. The course will introduce you to new ways of turning the urban landscape into stories, and look at how to use what's around you to enrich what you're working on already.

Inspiration is everywhere. This 6-week course will prompt you to venture out and create stories in your regular haunts as well as in unexpected places. Reinvigorate your creative practice through close observation and, through insightful feedback, gain a clearer sense of what makes your writing voice unique.

The course is particularly suited to writers looking for feedback on their work, and who are interested in generating a substantial amount of writing in a relatively short period of time.

Previous participants said:
"I like the exercises, they have ample content but are not too rigid, a nice balance."
"I really like the fact it encourages me to go out and about to write and explore new places and see how new ideas emerge through that."

About the tutor: Shaun Levin is passionate about exploring the landscape, the sea, the urban environment, as well as other art forms to enrich our stories and take writing to new and unexpected places. He is the author of several books, amongst them: Seven Sweet Things and A Year of Two Summers.

Dates: 14 September - 26 October 2018 (6 weeks)
