Master of Arts in Creative Writing

Program Overview

Refine your writing across a range of styles and genres
Understand where your work fits in the diverse world of publishing
Be inspired and encouraged by guest writers, editors and literary agents

Creative Writing at Winchester offers you the opportunity to evaluate and improve your creative writing in a dynamic, supportive environment. The programme is taught by professional writers and highly experienced practitioner-academics in Creative Writing, specialising, especially, in prose fiction, poetry and literary non-fiction. There are opportunities to meet agents, editors and published writers, and as your knowledge of the publishing industry expands, find out where your work fits within the market.

In the Publishing Project, you will engage with writers, agents and editors through readings and workshops, exploring publishing opportunities for your own work.

The Independent Study Preparation module is designed to help you prepare for your Creative Writing dissertation – an independent project of your choice of up to 25,000 words which constitutes nearly half of the MA. This could be the first part of a novel, a collection of short stories, the opening to a work of literary non-fiction, or a portfolio of personal essays or poetry, completed with tutor support.

Graduates of the course frequently obtain publishing contracts, while others work in other aspects of publishing, or in teaching, media, the arts and business.
