Overview
The Creative Writing course from UCL Summer School encourages you to embrace creative writing as an ongoing process, an entrepreneurial ‘fail better’ and ‘succeed together’ via a constructive feedback experience. Sharing your writing can feel daunting and vulnerable. Yet, within this practice-based environment, we grow together by challenging stereotypes, exploring boundaries and developing skills in a supportive, stimulating and collaborative way.
