I saw a triangle slicing the water fifteen feet away. It was a shark's fin. An awful tingle, cold and liquid, went up and down my spine.

Information

Writing Classes online

All Writing Classes writing courses run for ten weeks (a familiarisation week + nine conferences). During each conference participants read online notes, complete writing assignments and are encouraged to appraise each other's work. They aim to keep small course groups of between 5 and 10 participants.

The nine week poetry writing course proper is a mixture of informative notes and writing exercises and assignments. During these nine weeks you will learn how to use poetic language and forms as well as aspects of rhythm and rhyme.
