The Writers Bureau

Welcome to the wonderful world of writing. If you like the idea of being a writer, then you’re in the right place. This mini course has been designed to help you explore what being a writer is all about, and introduce you to the major forms of creative writing.

Working through the six lessons, you’ll look at who can be a writer and what skills you’ll need. You’ll be shown many different types of writing, so you can begin to think about what you really want to write, and in what form.

Throughout the course there are short exercises that will help you reflect on why you want to write, what your aims and ambitions are, and how you’re going to achieve them. Understanding your own motivation is an important part of the writing journey.

Once you enrol, you'll be taking the first steps on that journey; a journey where you’ll start to develop into a writer. It will be fun. It will be exciting. And, at times it will be challenging. But ultimately, we hope you’ll find it satisfying and extremely rewarding.

The course finishes by looking at a number of options available to help you start your writing life, support you along the way, and help develop your craft. 

Once you’ve worked your way through all the lessons, you should have gained a good understanding of what to expect as a writer, which type of writing you want to explore, what you hope to gain from it, and how best to move forward.

 So, enrol now and let’s get started.
