First Steps in Creative Writing is a practical beginner’s course that takes new writers from a blank page to a finished first draft. Across six modules, it covers finding your voice, generating ideas, story structure, character development, editing and revising, and building the confidence and habits to keep going. Each module explains the key ideas with familiar examples, then gives you exercises to try straight away. There are checklists, a peer feedback guide and recommended reading, and no experience is needed. Bonus: There is a link to an interactive version of the guide inside.
