    The Warwick Writing Programme



    The Warwick Writing Programme, founded in 1996, is the largest and most comprehensive of its kind in Europe. It is an internationally-acclaimed programme drawing students and staff from across the globe.

Among them are Will Eaves, Maureen Freely, Michael Hulse, A.L.Kennedy, China Mieville, David Morley, Sarah Moss, Ian Sansom, Jonathan Skinner, Jeremy Treglown and David Vann. Regular tutors include Peter Blegvad, James Clarke, Tim Leach, Leila Rasheed, Dragan Todorovic and George Ttoouli. Jonathan Coe is an Honorary Professor, Micahel Bywater the current Royal Literary Fund Fellow, and Rochelle Sibley leads the Writing Centre.

    Visiting Fellows have included Monica Ali, Candida Clark, Geoffrey Hill, Mario Vargas Llosa, Maggie O'Farrell, Fiona Sampson and Wole Soyinka.
