English Creative Writing - Presbyterian College

English Creative Writing from Presbyterian College is a Campus Bachelor Writing degree that prepares you for a Liberal Arts career. The Creative Writing program at PC gives young writers the opportunity to study and practice writing as an art form, from the sentence level to larger content concerns. The courses are designed as peer workshops, where students and the professor critique your work. The workshops are non-judgmental and open-minded about content?we want you to feel comfortable exploring issues and ideas. The program is genre-friendly, so if you?re interested in writing , or learning to write, in modes such as fantasy, science fiction, horror, romance, western, thriller, you?ll find support here. In addition to workshopping, the courses include lectures and discussions on various elements of writing, from world-building, characterization, and point of view to metaphor, poetic forms, and rhythm. Students begin with foundational workshop courses in Poetry, Fiction, and/or Creative Nonfiction. Each of these workshops focuses primarily on reading and responding to original student work, but the craft of professional writers and poets is also explored. The benefit of any workshop lies in how the individual becomes a better critical reader and can then apply that thinking to one?s own writing . Whatever type of writing you?re interested in (poetry, prose, script, etc.), the solid foundation in writing and workshopping you build in these courses will help you become better creative writers. These courses are designed for the beginning creative writer, although a more seasoned writer will also benefit. A public reading, usually at My Friend?s Bookstore, caps off the courses.
