Synopsis

Revised and updated throughout, this 10th-anniversary edition of Can Creative Writing Really Be Taught? is a significantly expanded guide to key issues and practices in creative writing teaching today.

Now brought up-to-date with new issues that have emerged with the explosion of creative writing courses in higher education, the new edition includes:

· Guides to and case studies of workshop practice
· Discussions on grading and the myth of "the easy A"
· Explorations of the relationship between reading and writing
· A new chapter on creative writing research
· A new chapter on games, fan-fiction and genre writing
· New chapters on identity and activism
