Course Description:
Consider the basic elements of fiction (e.g., plot, character, setting, theme) from the point of view of the creative writer, who makes both conscious and unconscious choices about these elements in the process of artistic creation. Read about the process of writing short fiction, and read a variety of short works that exemplify fictional elements to analyze the choices that other writers have made. Apply learning to the creation, discussion and revision of your own creative work. This course focuses on the writing process. Students participate in a workshop setting online to post their own drafts and to discuss other students' and established writers' short works of fiction.
This course fully meets the General Education requirement in The Arts.
