Introduction to Creative Writing

This six-week course is perfect for anyone just getting started on their path to being a writer.

Students work in small breakout sessions with experienced writers and teachers, then attend a lecture by various guest speakers with expertise in fiction, poetry, nonfiction or screenwriting.

Short assignments are workshopped in the weekly breakout sessions.

The goal of the course is to expose new writers to a variety of types of writing while getting their creative juices flowing.

At the end of the quarter, students feel more confident about their skills and are prepared for further study of writing.
