Thanks shorty and glykoula, I was gonna ring the local tafe from work today but i got too busy and forgot about it. I was looking on the internet and noticed some courses by correspondance but they were so expensive. I think I will try calling the tafe again on monday.

elli i haven't looked it up again yet as i haven't had a chance
but if your thinking about doing a course by correspondence, very seriously consider it before you do it, im doing a high school course by correspondence and it can somtimes have its moments (i knw is different but i think doing anything by correspondence has this effect), then again every person prefers different ways of learning, but seriously think about it what you prefer, tafge or uni, or by yourself
will look the courses up asap see what i can find

ive got a fair idea where u could start to write uno those community centres where they hold a course for about 8 weeks they ususally have a english writing course there and you also receive a certificate in the end. Also try Tafe/Uni or even a counsillor call them up they might be able to help you get started into what you want.
Best of luck eli mwa

im thinking tafe, as with correspondance i might not have the commitment to stick to it.

it gets hard to at times elli, you have to be really really motivated and not always say "ahh i can do it later" and if you do need help it can then get a bit more complicated, but if you're good at working by yourself, and your really committed, then go for it, and if its creative writing, most of the time you need to be by yourself anyways so its all up to ou and what you think you can do and fit in

good luck
