This unit offers students the opportunity to develop their writing across a number of writing genres, and through structured discussions and related creative and reflective assignments, to extend their skills both in the crafting and the analysis of the craft of writing and research. Students reflect upon and interrogate their writing and writing practices, explore new research methods in relation to craft and technique or genre, and link this work to consideration of published creative works and contemporary narrative studies. Writing workshops and discussion of the readings are structured so that students can make productive links between concepts in narrative studies and their own writing and research.
