The goals of this course are to develop an understanding of fundamental fiction-writing concepts and to apply those to your work. The course is designed to be helpful for students who have never written a story and for students who have been writing stories for years. You will be reading a variety of short stories from established writers and looking for techniques that can be helpful to your writing. Classes will include writing exercises, craft discussions, workshop discussions about fellow students’ work, writing a complete short story, and making revisions to your story based on instructor and student feedback.
