Course Information

Description

This is a course on the writing of literary fiction and is for students who have taken at least one previous writing workshop. Since good writing comes out of good reading, we will be closely reading the work of a wide variety of authors, including Virginia Woolf, W.G. Sebald, Samuel Beckett, Jamaica Kincaid, Lydia Davis, and others. Students can expect to write and workshop two stories of their own over the course of the semester.
