Creative Writing
Creative Writing at Wits University offers an intensive workshop-based postgraduate programme focused on reading and writing across a number of genres. 足球竞彩app排名s benefit from close attention to their work from staff and peers, and enjoy rigorous debate and discussion in a small-group forum. They are encouraged to make the most of their own artistic instincts and to realise, as fully as possible, their potential as writers.
Our staff represent a rich diversity of styles and genres, and teach from their expertise in both literary culture and creative practices. In addition, the programme regularly invites guest writers to lead workshops or give lectures and readings, and in some cases, to work closely with individual students.
At the end of the Honours degree, students will have in hand a substantial portfolio of writing. MA and PhD students will complete a draft of a full-length work of fiction or nonfiction; a collection of poetry; or a play script or screenplay.
