The Exciting Factual
Writing course was intended for students with some experience
of creative writing who wished to explore specific technical
writing skills in greater depth: setting an historical or otherwise
factual context for their creative writing: biography, history,
historical fiction, research-based essays, etc.
Teaching covered all the requisite skills for
such projects: preparing and conducting research, drawing inferences
and conclusions from factual information, and achieving an effective
blend of creative and analytical methods and materials.
Class processes are not recorded here, but the
