Student Profiles

You get a real hands-on education. The classes are taught in small groups, so you’ll be sitting at the table with published and celebrated authors helping you nurture your talent.

During my time at the Manchester Writing School I produced articles for Manchester Metropolitan’s arts and culture student magazine, aAh! Magazine, participated in National Novel Writing Month, and was involved in the Notes into Letters project, a partnership project between the Manchester Writing School and the Royal Philharmonic Society that explored the use of classical music as a source of writing inspiration.

I think the biggest adjustment for me was leaving my family. It was hard the first few months, but my classmates, along with a few nights at the pub, made me feel at home.

What I love most about Manchester is the people; they made this new city feel like my home.
