Wednesday 26 September 2018, 7.00PM to 9.00pm
This module will introduce students to the pleasures and pitfalls of novel writing, from conception to completion. Fundamental aspects of the novel as a literary form will be discussed, and strategies set for maintaining discipline and morale through the writing process. Particular attention will be paid to getting started, with ideas devised in class and fleshed out before being put down as prose and discussed in workshops. Close attention will be paid to the work of established writers and a number of novels - genre and literary - will be analysed in class.
