University of ChesterBA Creative Writing and English LiteratureHi! I'm Ashli and a second year in the University of Chester, and I am happy to answer any of your questions regarding life in Chester, being a second year or first year, being an English student, or whatever you have any queries about. Just drop a question! My previous course was a T-Level in Education and Childcare. Ben
University of East Anglia UEALiterature and Creative Writing3rd year English Literature student currently finishing my studies at UEA and set to begin my MA in Archiving at UCL next year. Working towards a career in Archiving and Record Preservation. Particularly interests in Critical Theory and philosophy. Passionate about exploring the intersections between literature, politics, music, visual art and our collective histories. The written word is not dead or static but full of life which it gives to us, which is why I feel the study of Literature is so significant. I also enjoy creative writing as a way of developing my passion for reading, and enjoying an appreciation for my favourite books which is interactive and participatory. In my spare time I boulder at Rock Punk Climbing Cafe, located on Magdalen Street in Norwich, and Highball Climbing Centre, just a bus ride away from the City Centre. I love the element of problem solving involved in completing difficult routes and advancing towards harder challenges with a renewed set of physical and mental skills. I also find that Climbing is a sport that has helped me immensely around difficulties stemming from complete blindness in my left eye, such as strengthening depth perception and hand eye coordination. It is something I'd recommend very highly to anyone with impaired eye-sight (and everyone else too!) I am also well acquainted with the DSA process by virtue of my blindness so please do message me if you're curious or facing any troubles with regard to disability allowance and support! I have also skateboarded for a number of years and enjoy a street skate sesh or a trip to Eaton Park whenever I can :) Bunni

University of LincolnEnglish and Creative Writing - BA (Hons)I am British Italian with an Anglo-Indian heritage, and reside in London. My English and Creative Writing undergraduate degree will prepare me for an English Literature MA and PhD, specialising in 19th-century women's writing and its relevance to contemporaneous debates about feminism. I plan to become an English professor in an Italian university. I am also undertaking the TEFL diploma course which will aid me in teaching English in Milano, and an advanced Italian course to develop my language learning!

Leeds Beckett UniversityEnglish with Creative Writing | BA (Hons)As an English and Creative Writing student, I am passionate about becoming a screenwriter. My dream is to work for a video game company, like Riot Games or Bethesda, and help adapt their games into a television show; the new show Fallout is a wonderful example of this. I am also currently writing my creative final project as my own original screenplay based on the humour of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. I am constantly in the middle of reading numerous books but these are some of my favourites: Brave New World, The Witcher series, Song of Ice and Fire, Harry Potter, and Lord of the Rings. Some of my favourite video games: Legend of Zelda, Skyrim, Dragon Age, League of Legends, etc. Some of my favourite manga/anime: Sakamoto Days, Spy x Family, One Punch Man, My Hero Academia, Attack on Titan. I am also an international student from America. I came here for my British fiancé as well as studies, so I can help you with international questions as well. I can't wait to speak with you! Mand
