I have a couple of questions regarding the Literature Review section of a PhD proposal (English/Creative Writing)

How long does it have to be? How many sources do I need to quote?

Thank you for all your replies

:-)

Congrats pjlu :-)

Hope you enjoy a well earned break

AHRC funding is hard to get and having a first is no guarantee that you'll be one of the lucky ones. I'd recommend having a back plan to ensure that you still have the funds to do an MA should you be unsuccessful.

I'm seriously considering applying for a PhD in Creative Writing later this year and would like to know what makes a good application.

Is it the research proposal and a decent MA mark (I've just finished up an MA in Creative Writing)?

I was the only student on the course to get AHRC funding. Is this worth mentioning?

Thanks for all your thoughts :-)
