This 8-week course provides a rich and supportive forum for you to develop your ability as a writer of environmental creative nonfiction, whether for personal enrichment or with a view to publication. During this course you will learn how to capture the character of a landscape or experience of nature in words, techniques for training your senses, narrative technique and style, as well as practical skills such as editing, proofreading and the publishing process. Drawing on the heritage of nature writing, yet looking for ways to extend and enrich it, this course provides practical immersion for those with some experience as nature writers. 

Please note that, weather permitting, some of these sessions may involve taking a short walk to a green space near the classroom.
