You might want to write about your whole life, a single relationship, a road trip, your job or your personal take on any experience you've ever had. You can express all this in a memoir, novel, rap, poem, article, blog or any other collection of published words.
Whatever your goals, there are some core things you have to consider – your angle, scope, voice, genre and audience. This course will help you to decide what you want to write and how to go about it.
