Previous

Reading has always been my safe space. Exploring new worlds is exciting: going round London with Paddington; falling down the rabbit hole with Alice; staying at the Dewdrop Inn. One day, I began inventing my own worlds, creating characters, writing stories – but writers then didn't look like me. Writers weren't working class and often weren't girls! By doing an MA in Creative Writing and learning, through creative process, how to BE a writer, I gained confidence and a mindset that means my writing is central to my life; it’s not just about waiting for the Muse, it’s about doing the hard work too!

Dr Kim Wiltshire

Reader in Creative Writing

There is magic in storytelling. When you read a book, how is it possible that those small inky marks on the paper can travel into your brain and enable you to experience other lives, worlds and emotions?

As soon as I could form letters, I wanted to write stories. Even then I was unwittingly figuring out if I, too, could make an image or idea travel from my brain into someone else’s simply through writing it. At Edge Hill we're a community of writers who share a curiosity in investigating the magic of storytelling.

What you'll study

Teaching and assessment

Your writing journey begins by exploring key ideas around theme and image, character and voice in all forms of writing. We encourage you to start a writer’s journal as you develop the foundations of your writing ability. You’ll develop skills in constructing your own fictional worlds and learn to read as a writer. Year 1 also introduces ways of working in the arts, humanities and creative industries.

Writing 1- Character and Voice

Writing 1- Character and Voice introduces you to the art of writing by focusing on published pieces, specifically short prose, poems and dramatic script by concentrating on the analysis of literary texts. Through the close examination of set texts, you will be supported in developing skills in reading as a writer and writerly techniques of perception, language and effect. You are expected to read a range of prose, poetry and scripts with the aim of integrating reading as a writer into an ongoing practice of reflection on their own writing and its development. This module has a practical aspect, in which you will produce a short piece of prose, poetry or dramatic script. In order to do so, you will engage with a variety of techniques, forms and styles, illustrated by the close analysis of published literature. You will also develop the discipline of writing practice through the keeping of a writer's journal and by reflecting on their own progress.

Module code: ECW1001

Storytelling on Screen

Storytelling on Screen recognises that sharing a story is one of the most universal and important elements of human communication. It is how we make sense of the world, predating written language by thousands of years. Stories and narrative are the fundamental way in which individuals, societies and industries function and how they represent their realities and fantasies. The power of narrative to persuade and influence on a mass level, and mould identity on an individual level, should not be underestimated. Representation through narrative is power. Politicians, commerce and the media industry know this well. Stories greatly impact on how we look at life. The module will introduce you to the origins of story creation and examine how stories function as one of the underpinning elements of all media production, connecting creators to an audience. The module will also develop the creative processes in relation to storytelling and provide practical engagement with the challenges of story production. You will be introduced to the orthodox conventions of storytelling on screen, consider this in the current context of multiplatform production, and gain practical experience in exploring, researching, creating and developing stories for the screen in response to tutor-directed briefs.
