Agency launches creative writing school


For the first time ever, a literary agency has announced that it will be launching a creative writing school. Curtis Brown is providing some fantastic tutors to support the school including novelists Anna Davis and Jake Arnott. The agency says; "We really want to be taking quite a practical industry-led approach to this. This will not be about qualifications, it's about the experience."

The course will be run from the agency's London office and will take place over the course of 3 months from May next year. The course will be made available to a tiny 15 students only, and the lucky few will be selected on the basis of the quality of a novel in progress.

To be considered for one of these select positions, applicants must submit a completed application form, an engaging synopsis, and the first 3000 words of the novel. Further details on the course can be found at curtisbrowncreative.co.uk
