A successful writing life requires us to move between solitary work and intense periods of sharing, discussion, and feedback. This class will do just this: we will split our time between asynchronous (online, apart) and synchronous (in-person, together) work, thus cultivating both sides of the writing life.

This class introduces students to the craft of creative writing. We will explore a variety of approaches to making and revising our own work and help peers do the same. We will produce writing in three broad genres (poetry, fiction, creative nonfiction) and explore the breadth of these genres by reading, discussing, and analyzing exemplary texts.

Come write! See what you're good at or what new genres you enjoy reading. You might surprise yourself.
