“My memorable experiences at the Manchester Writing School ranged from watching authors and professors animatedly discuss literature, to listening to vinyls while reading poetry at the Poetry Library. I found a lot of value in my discussions with other writers, both inside and outside the classroom, developing an understanding for the craft of writing through careful analysis.”
