This specialist creative writing MA is designed for writers for children, teenagers and young adults who aim to complete a novel, series of picture books or shorter stories for young children. It's a practical course, taught by experienced lecturers who are all published children's writers and/or industry professionals.
We offer places on the basis of our assessment of your quality, potential and commitment as a writer and your ability to benefit from the course.
Usually, but not invariably, you will have a degree. This may be in subjects other than Creative Writing.
This is not a beginner's course, so we will be looking for evidence of originality in your writing for young people, and a sense of audience.
You will have read widely in the field of contemporary children's literature.
