Creative Writing summer school

Creative Writing is a form of artistic writing that uses imagery, drama, and narrative to express ideas. Genres in Creative Writing include fiction, poetry, and screenplays.

It’s important to study Creative Writing because it enhances your communication skills. When you find the right words to say, your message becomes impactful.

A skilled Creative Writer can thrive as an author and in the world of business. Why? Because the core of creative writing is empathy. When you write poems or stories, it’s about putting yourself in other people’s shoes.

Empathy is also centre-stage in business. After all, isn’t entrepreneurship all about solving people’s problems?

Creative Writing helps you express what your brand stands for. And how your products solve problems. Even in non-profit organisations, Creative Writing comes in handy. Because you need support. And the only way to gain that is by sharing your stories and advocacies through words.

So whatever profession or business you enter, the communication skills you develop with Creative Writing are valuable assets.
