DSU Creative Writing Club

The DSU Creative Writing Club is dedicated to creating a space for students to practice creative writing together. We will experiment with a wide variety of genres including songs, scriptwriting, comedy, sci-fi, and short stories. This space is also intended for sharing and workshopping our creative writing. We look forward to connecting with our local writing community by exploring writing-related events in the lower mainland together, such as the Vancouver Writer’s Festival, and Vancouver Slam Poetry Nights.

The purpose of the clubs is to:

• To create a space for students to come together and work on creative writing prompts provided by club members.
• Provide opportunities for students to have their writing workshopped.
• This aids academic growth by allowing students to practice writing workshop skills and consider feedback given by peers.
• Explore and promote creative writing related events in the local Vancouver area, with an emphasis on promoting free events. Ex New West Cultural Crawl. Collaborate with Douglas College to host larger events such as open mic’s which encourage student involvement.
