This program is designed as a follow-up to ‘Creative Writing’ and was developed in response to demand from those who had successfully completed that program and wanted to learn more.

Topics include innovative ways to create atmosphere and excitement in your writing, how to choose and use different tenses, how to write effective dialogue, how to use emotive language, how to create memorable characters and atmospheric settings, how to make objects come to life in words, how to maintain control and form in a long work, and how to develop a personal writing style.
