I can’t express how truly incredible the SUISS International Creative Writing Course was. It was a once in a lifetime opportunity that will live in my heart forever. This four-week experience in Edinburgh was nothing short of transformational.
From the moment it began, I felt welcomed into a safe, supportive, and inspiring space to write and express myself. The masterclasses, poetry sessions, and workshops were led by tutors who were not only deeply talented but also kind, generous, and encouraging. Their mentorship and feedback gave me the confidence and skill set to move forward with my own projects. I am now well into writing my novel thanks to the foundation they helped me build.
Equally unforgettable were the friendships I made. I now have lasting connections with writers from around the world. From France, Germany, the USA, Australia and we still speak daily, reflecting often on how special this time was.
It’s easy to see why Edinburgh is the literary capital of the world. Between the city’s energy, the incredible teaching, the warmth of everyone involved and the unique sense of community, I can honestly say I wish the course had lasted forever.
SUISS is an extraordinary program, and I recommend it wholeheartedly to anyone looking for a creative, life-changing, and truly inspiring experience.
