EN 579 Writing Workshop: Fiction (Fall/Spring: 3)
Enrollment limited to 15.
This course provides encouragement, practice, and criticism for students
seriously interested in writing short fiction. The workshop format demands
self-motivation and universal participation. Since students' stories are
texts for class discussion, a generous willingness to respond to others'
writing and to expose one's own work to such reactions is an essential
prerequisite. Individual conferences with the instructor supplement the
workshop discussions. Students are expected to produce a steady stream
of new and revised fiction throughout the semester. Narrative preferences
from the traditional to the experimental are welcome.
