Course Description

Many of us aspire to write a novel and we can carry around an idea for years without putting pen to paper, or fingers to keys! Some of us actually begin but it can be hard to maintain momentum and potentially great novels can go unfinished. Novel Writing 2: The First Draft is the second of three courses in a novel writing series. It is not compulsory for students to have done Novel Writing 1, as long as they have a novel proposal and are confident that they are ready to begin writing a first draft.  

In Novel Writing 1, students develop their ideas and work on building the world of that novel and in this second course, Novel Writing 2, students will aim to write a first draft of their novel (which can then be worked on in Novel Writing 3: The Rewrite.
