The unit offers you highly transferable skills that form part of the professional writer's practice and which are especially useful to develop early in a writing career. Creative non-fiction allows you to combine real life stories with the creative and imaginative writing techniques employed in fiction, and applies to a wide range of writing modes and publishing contexts. These include reviewing, writing about books, music and screen, food writing, the personal essay, life writing and travel literature, and the use of humour in writing. This unit encourages you to apply the creative writing techniques of these forms to your own areas of interest and creative practice, and has an industry focus in equipping you with practical and analytical skills in a range of non-fiction creative writing genres.","title-full":"KWB116 Writing Creative Non-Fiction","title-short":"Writing Creative Non-Fiction","url":{"current":"https://qutvirtual4.qut.edu.au/group/student/enrolment/units/unit?unitCode=KWB116&year=2025","prospective":"https://www.qut.edu.au/study/unit?unitCode=KWB116","timetable":"https://qutvirtual3.qut.edu.au/qvpublic/ttab_unit_search_p.process_teach_period_search?p_unit_cd=KWB116"},"year":2025,"years":[2024,2025]}
