All too often students approach writing with trepidation and a reluctance to put pen to paper. We all have the potential to be creative and storytelling is an innate skill, yet too many individuals claim to be unable to write effectively. All students can write well when they are inspired and feel supported to take risks.

Imaginative writing like the finger paintings we all once did at school is messy. Students need to be reassured that writing in the initial stages is not perfect. It takes time, effort and practice to achieve artistry, and the process is iterative.

This book gives students the opportunity and support through examples and technical information to reimagine, redraft and redefine their writing, and become increasingly confident and proficient writers.
