Victoria Loftus – MA Creative Writing

Continuing my studies at the same University that I did my undergraduate degree has been a bonus. It has allowed me to re-connect and further my networks with academics, students and external individuals and businesses. After completing my undergraduate degree in BA (Hons) English Literature and Creative Writing at Edge Hill, this was the natural choice of Masters programme for me.

I always knew that I wanted to do a Masters in Creative Writing. I felt that my writing could develop even further and studying a postgraduate course seemed like the perfect option and a great way to hone my skills so that I could eventually pursue writing as a career.

It took me a while after graduating from my undergraduate degree to apply for a Masters. I had a few years to think and it was during the early lockdowns that I realised I wasn’t doing as much writing as I wanted to be, so that seemed like the perfect time and reason to apply for the Masters that I’d always wanted to pursue. Now that I’m a significant way through my MA in Creative Writing, I can say that deciding to apply has been one of the best decisions I have ever made.
