Creative writing covers a wide range of genres and forms, each with its own techniques and conventions.

Among the core forms studied in creative writing classes:

• Prose fiction: long and short narratives that invent characters, settings and storylines.
• Poetic writing: writing shaped by line breaks, rhythm and figurative language.
• Literary non-fiction: memoirs, personal essays and travel writing told with literary craft.
• Plays and screenplays: formats designed for actors, directors and a viewing audience.
• Other genres: micro-fiction, lyrics and personal blogs that blur traditional boundaries.

An experienced tutor will tailor exercises to the genres you enjoy most and help you build a portfolio you're proud of.

Starting creative writing can feel daunting, but a few simple habits help you build confidence quickly.

Try these approaches to get going:

• Read like a writer: study the books you love and notice how dialogue, pacing and description work.
• Practise daily: consistency matters more than length — a small habit yields big results over time.
• Start with prompts: photo prompts, first-line challenges and timed sprints unlock ideas when you feel stuck.
• Polish your work: revising teaches you more about writing than drafting ever will.
