Introduction
Join the Creative Writing Summer School at Oxford Summer Courses
To write well, you must feel inspired. Every great writer throughout time had a muse – a captivating love, a passion for the seasons, or a pull to a particular place that stirred emotion and imagination.
Engaging fiction and poetry is most memorable when it’s written with authenticity and experience. Fortunately, Oxford Summer Courses can offer both in equal measure in our Creative Writing summer school!
Oxford and Cambridge have long been associated with literary pedigree, and their iconic writers date back centuries. Walk the same cobbled streets and write under the same canopy of stars that showcased some of the world’s finest novels and poems, learning the methods and structures that help your ideas flow fluently.
