Creative Writing Summer Program in Cambridge or Oxford
Writing an exceptional story isn’t just about great ideas; it’s about learning how to create compelling characters, write a gripping plot, and take your reader on a journey through an imaginative and vivid world. We’ll help you accomplish this by exploring topics such as the principles of creative writing, the essentials of plot development, and an introduction to writing styles. This summer school is designed for students who want to explore all aspects of the creative process, from writing and editing to critiquing. There is a strong emphasis on putting theory into practice, so you won't just be equipped with the knowledge of how to write better prose, but you will also be allowed to showcase your improved skills by writing a novella.
