Overview

At Writing from Royal College of Art we will be able to support you to become the best possible version of the writer you’d like to be. If we tend towards anything it is ‘creative non-fiction’, imperfectly described, although ‘literary writing’, rather than literature, might be a less inadequate alternative.

Students at Writing from Royal College of Art will be able to:

Produce work at an advanced level that combines intelligence, speculation, and technical ability.

Articulate the intentions of their work, and reflect upon them in relation to the critical and conceptual context of their practice.

Experiment with form, and develop an understanding of which form — or combination of forms — might be most appropriate for their work.

Develop an awareness of the many ways in which you can make your work public, and demonstrate a sensitivity to what might be most appropriate in different circumstances.
