General Information

Overview

This unit requires you to write a substantial creative piece called a 'creative artefact.' This piece might be a novella, a group of short stories, a screenplay, a script, or group of plays, a suite of poems, a portfolio of works of various genres, a flash fiction series, or some other genre, or any other approved mix. You will negotiate your creative artefact with a supervisor and produce a 'proposal' stating the literary intentions for your creative writing project, including a rationale. Your creative artefact will be expected to reflect a high-level synthesis and stylistic application of the writing skills you have acquired through the earlier units in the major. This will require writing a weekly critical reflection in parallel to track the development and progress of your creative artefact over time. You will produce a substantial body of work in creating your creative artefact.
