All artists, regardless of form, articulate and reflect their societies and identities. The arts participate in this on-going historical conversation and while using different modes of expression, they necessarily share ideas of form, expressive possibility and subject. This paper argues that creative writing benefits from being contextualised within the panoply of the arts, something which both opens interdisciplinary possibilities, but also allows for a richer understanding of process and the functions of literature. In this respect, the paper looks at the teaching of creative writing at UCA, which has a strong background as a fine art school.
