Creative Writing II (Advanced Beginners)

This course is for anyone who has tried creative writing before (however long ago!), but needs some inspiration or structure; and for anyone who already writes but would like to improve their skills. Classes will meet for 2.5 hours (with a break in the middle) and will combine in-class writing assignments, exploration of methods and styles, and supportive workshop discussion of your own work. There will also be optional homework assignments to stimulate your imagination outside of class. You will come away with a collection of habits, hints and hacks, and exercises that you can use far beyond the ten-week class.
