College Description

Hampstead Creative Writing offers courses and workshops in creative writing in the centre of one of London’s most literary areas, Hampstead.

Course Description

These classes are open to anyone with a desire to write. You can write in any style, and you are welcome if you have not written before. The classes are based around discussing written work presented by the students. Some classes will be based around taught modules such as character, plot, form, style etc.

You will receive constructive criticism when you present work to the class. Your critical thinking and close reading abilities will improve as you read other people’s work and learn how to judge it and how to express your opinions. You will be empowered by seeing deeper meanings in other written work, and by the ability to express yourself in deeper and more manifold ways.
