Craft fiction, memoir, and narrative non-fiction at degree level
Online only
Creative writing is learned through practice, feedback, and reading widely. African Future University's MA offers fiction, memoir, and narrative non-fiction workshops with small cohorts and faculty who are published authors. You will produce a portfolio of polished work, study craft through published exemplars, and learn publishing pathways including agents, self-publishing, and digital media. Edinburgh's literary heritage informs the programme ethos.

Novelist Professor Sofia Ramirez leads fiction workshops; poet Dr. Emma Laurent supervises memoir and hybrid forms.
