The Creative Writing Club is all about writing creatively. Writing is one of those
niche interests that only a small percentage of people take part in. As such, finding
like-minded individuals who share a literary passion can be a challenge. The Creative
Writing Club makes that challenge negligible. All that a literature-loving student
will have to do to get involved with other writers is join up! Members of the club
will be given the opportunity to share their work with others, and, naturally, have
others' work shared with themselves. Peer reviews have been instrumental in my come-up
as a writer, and it goes both ways. When my work is analyzed, I get to see what I
did right and what I did wrong: perfect information for improvement. When analyzing
another's work, I get to see what they did right and what they did wrong: perfect
information for improvement. Any currently enrolled student is allowed to join.
