Ou Creative Writing Course Book

Some other courses seem to have open ended dated, and I don't have the discipline for that. There is some flexibility to ask for an extension or to potentially miss one assignment out and still pass the module (though obviously you get less points towards the module).I think I asked for 2 extensions during the degree as I hate to get behind for the next assignment. I found it slightly less on some weeks, and a little more on the weeks when I had to write an essay or short story.

) - I've studied (business stuff) with the OU recently and I expect there will at least be a tutor group forum and a cafe forum for general discussion.

Of course you can do it - it's going to be great! I signed up to start this year and am also daunted by the workload but we can pull each other through. I chose fiction and screenwriting cos the latter excited me even tho I've never experienced it. Business that's so different from creative writing- what are you hoping to do with it all in the end.

) - I'm doing fiction as my main and scriptwriting for my secondary genre.

There will defs be a forum opened (thought I read somewhere it'll be opened on the 16th Sept?

I didn't sign up to teach the MA because, alas, I think they will severely underestimate how much time the tutor will spend with the student and cynically expect the tutor to spend much more time than they are actually paid for.

Which is exactly what they do on the other courses.

The CW modules were easier for me as you can write or polish something in small gaps of time (between cries of 'Muuuuuuummmm! For the literature courses I found I had to sit for longer.

I wrote a lot of essays at a soft play area, luckily I can filter out general screams of other children, while still hearing my own children over the din.

I loved the BRB (big red book) and it's bluer counterpart, and how you just worked through a chapter a week. I'm a big believer in keeping on learning, so I'm taking a playwriting course.

I hope you plans for your free time (after finishing with OU tutoring) are fun and fulfilling. Most of my writing experience has been in telly and radio and I know nothing about stage writing - so I'm starting at the bottom!
