10 credits at level 1 (NQF level 4)
Learn how to write effective prose fiction in a supportive environment. Create convincing characters, put them in vivid settings. Now what happens? The plot, the story, are in your hands.
This module is divided into six sections and you can work at your own pace, providing the course is completed within four months. At the end of each section, you may submit work to your tutor for informal feedback, and to other students via the message board if you wish. By the end of the course it is hoped that you will have completed a short story, and a short appraisal of that work, for assessment.
Please book early to secure a place on this popular course.
