Section information text: Storytelling was a way for our ancestors to pass on values, spiritual beliefs, and history. One of the ways in which we continue this heritage today is through short fiction. This course introduces students to the processes and concepts of creative writing through short fiction. Students examine established authors, narrative techniques, and structures, which they use as a guide to write short stories that model voice, purpose, and elements of story writing. Through this course, students gain critical-thinking and analytical skills in writing, revising, and publishing creative fiction.
