As a Webster University Creative Writing major, you'll take courses in fiction, poetry, drama, creative nonfiction, as well as selected literature courses. You'll learn to read as a writer, understanding and analyzing a range of literary strategies, such as language, voice, and form. You'll also produce accomplished creative work that demonstrates a command of technique. You’ll be part of a lively literary community, with opportunities like The Green Fuse, our student literary magazine; The Mercury, our yearly publication of outstanding student work; Surfacing, our annual festival where students write, direct, and produce their own one-act plays; and the new Student Reading Series. Along the way, you'll develop the critical reading, thinking, and communication skills required for success in any professional role.
