What does it mean to be a writer? How can you get the most from studying Creative Writing at the University of the Arts? Taking inspiration from diverse readings, students will complete personal writing and critical reflections to investigate who they are as writers and their goals for the years ahead. They’ll consider the role of community in a writer’s education and the distinct opportunities for writers in Philadelphia and an arts setting. The course serves as an introduction to the Creative Writing major and to foundational practices for writing across genres.
