Details about this class

Writing 241/244 is a workshop course in short fiction. The course will emphasize craft, looking at style, structure, and how different writers tells stories in the short form. We’ll do our best to explore several genres and styles, from traditional to newer forms. 

My goal for this class is to emphasize the thought and the work that goes into writing stories, but also the catharsis of doing something playful and creative, especially in such strange and uncertain times.
