Why Creative Writing?

Creative writing is like that “spoonful of sugar” that makes the medicine go down. Students learn most of the skills they need to be good writers of academic work through pleasure and creativity. If you’d like to read more about this approach, read Prof. Suki’s series on teaching writing.
