About this course
This course introduces students to fiction from the perspective of the writer. Students learn to give and receive substantive and constructive feedback in workshops. Through the study of published stories and work by peers, students develop an understanding of the basic elements of short stories such as narrative structure, characterization, point of view, scene structure, and setting. An emphasis on reflection, analysis, and revision gives students the tools necessary to produce short stories while seeing themselves as entering a writing community. Additional genres of fiction, such as micro-fiction, flash-fiction, novellas, and novel chapters, may also be included.
