I know theres a few uni's which offer both fulltime and part time journalism / writing courses (im sure ECU Mt Lawley and Curtin both do) and theres some fantastic courses over east. I guess google is your friend!

Whats it for by the way?

See this is the flipside to taking courses. Some random person puts pen to paper and just lets their mind flow and writes something perhaps magical. Next thing you know he's a published novelist!

I wonder if any of the tafe's offer night courses? Surely they would?

I bet the Hemmingways and Zane Greys of the world never took courses :P
