ENC 3310 Slaughter Spring 2021

An upper-level undergraduate seminar and writing workshop, with emphasis on the craft of creative nonfiction. In this course, we will explore and practice a wide range of forms within the genre of creative nonfiction, from researched journalistic essays to lyrical essays that investigate the emotional truth of one's personal memories and experiences. Readings and writing assignments will include narrative nonfiction, memoir, braided essays, literary journalism, lyric essays, audio, visual, multimedia, and hybrid storytelling, and "public intellectual" writings that reflect engagement with politics, pop culture, and social issues.
