Course description: This module will be of interest to students who wish to explore the potential of creative writing for their own self development. We will look at issues around identity, and how we appear to shape our life stories in the telling of them. There will be a significant element of personal reflection and opportunities to engage in creative thinking and writing. Assessment will take the form of a 1.5-hour examination on theoretical aspects of the module as well as a single piece of coursework which will involve both creative and reflective writing.
