Sleight of Hand, the Art of Writing Fiction
Creative Writing Inaugural Lecture
Louise Welsh, newly appointed Professor of Creative Writing, explores her craft with reference to the depiction of creative writing courses in fiction. Michel Houellebecq, Muriel Spark, Stephen King, Edmund White and Francine Prose are amongst the writers who have located novels within university creative writing programmes. Is a sub-genre of the campus novel emerging and does writing about creative writing have the potential to reveal anything about the art?
