  • The Way Ahead the Future of Creative Writing in Education
    The Way Ahead the future of creative writing in education with special guests: Michael Morpurgo and Kate Atkinson a NAWE conference at The Hawkhills, York 16-18 November 2007 The Way Ahead: Introduction by Paul Munden This conference celebrates NAWE’s 20th year, and there are indeed real reasons to celebrate, over and above the date. When NAWE was first formed (by members represented on this latest conference programme) it had the aim of ‘widening the scope of writing in education, promoting the development of new ideas, offering practical help to less experienced writers and opening up a creative dialogue between writers, teachers and funding bodies.’ All those things have underwritten our every effort ever since, and with fruitful results. Current initiatives, such as our HE Network and our Writers in Schools Research Programme, funded by the Paul Hamlyn Foundation, are applying those founding principles in fresh, determined ways. Education is always the subject of fierce debate. Try to imagine a time when we are all perfectly satisfied with the curriculum and how it is delivered! (It’s actually a rather sinister thought.) As the curriculum is once again undergoing major changes, it is especially appropriate that we are meeting to consider the way ahead for writers and their engagement with education at all levels. As the word ‘creativity’ has been liberally applied to new programmes of study, it is up to writers and other artists to help ensure that teachers are well supported in translating the new notions into meaningful practice. Sometimes this means working directly with official bodies.

  • Addition to Summer Letter
    May 2020 Dear Student, You are enrolled in Advanced Placement English Literature and Composition for the coming school year. Bowling Green High School has offered this course since 1983. I thought that I would tell you a little bit about the course and what will be expected of you. Please share this letter with your parents or guardians. A.P. Literature and Composition is a year-long class that is taught on a college freshman level. This means that we will read college level texts—often from college anthologies—and we will deal with other materials generally taught in college. You should be advised that some of these texts are sophisticated and contain mature themes and/or advanced levels of difficulty. In this class we will concentrate on refining reading, writing, and critical analysis skills, as well as personal reactions to literature. A.P. Literature is not a survey course or a history of literature course so instead of studying English and world literature chronologically, we will be studying a mix of classic and contemporary pieces of fiction from all eras and from diverse cultures. This gives us an opportunity to develop more than a superficial understanding of literary works and their ideas. Writing is at the heart of this A.P. course, so you will write often in journals, in both personal and researched essays, and in creative responses. You will need to revise your writing. I have found that even good students—like you—need to refine, mature, and improve their writing skills. You will have to work diligently at revising major essays.

  • Case Histories by Kate Atkinson
    Case Histories by Kate Atkinson About the Book With a trio of compelling "cold case" mysteries at its core; with its wonderfully sympathetic and complex private detective hero; with its host of instantly endearing, lovably flawed characters; and with its effortlessly beautiful and intelligent prose, Case Histories is Kate Atkinson's breakout book - the most accomplished, most compulsively readable novel yet from a writer of the first rank. CASE ONE: Olivia Land, youngest and most beloved of the Land girls, goes missing in the night and is never seen again. Thirty years later, two of her surviving sisters, each achingly lonely in her own way, reunite when their cruel and distant father dies. There, among the clutter of their childhood home, they unearth a shocking clue to Olivia's disappearance. CASE TWO: All of Theo's happiness is tied to his devoted daughter Laura. He delights in her wit, her effortless beauty, her selfless love, and in the fact that she's taken a position at his prestigious law firm. But on her first day on the job, a maniac storms into the office and turns Theo's entire world upside down. CASE THREE Michelle looks around one day and finds herself trapped in a hell of her own making. A very needy baby and a very demanding husband make her every waking moment a reminder that somewhere, somehow, she made a grave mistake and will spend the rest of her life paying for it-until a fit of rage creates a grisly, bloody escape. As Private Detective Jackson Brodie investigates all three cases, startling connections and discoveries emerge.
