Gareth May: Professional Writing MA graduate

"For me the course was a steep learning curve, breaking my ‘traditional' views of what a writer was and sending me on my way mentally and practically prepared for a life spent trying to make it as a successful writer in my chosen fields. Falmouth changed the way I look at things in many ways, it made me realise that what I thought was unrealistic was possible and vice versa. The multi-million-pound book deal I used to dream of was unrealistic, but understanding the industry, applying my knowledge of trends and markets and then writing to fit those markets was well within my limitations - something I never ever correlated with writing."
