Creative Writing Experiments

Catalog description

This class is intended to provide a foundation in a particular genre of creative writing (e.g., fiction, poetry, or creative nonfiction; see Topic and Notes below.) Students will write extensively and participate in workshops as they experiment with various forms and techniques. They'll look at published works alongside works students produce to better understand the craft of creative writing. The goal is for students to leave the class better readers, with a heightened appreciation for the complexity of making creative works, and to have worked with the elements associated with writing and revising creative pieces of their own. Course repeatable for credit. Counts toward the GLS minor.
