Intermediate Creative Writing courses in Burlington and Georgetown, January – March

Intermediate Creative Writing

Ten weeks toward mastering your craft

Wednesday evenings, 6:45 – 9:00 p.m.
Begins by email Jan 11; classes run Jan 18 – March 22, 2017

Appleby United Church, 4407 Spruce Ave, Burlington, Ontario (Map here.)

Note: See details of all six classes offered in the new year here.

This course isn't for beginners; it's for people who have been writing for a while or who have done a class or two before and are working on their own projects. Over the length of the course, you’ll be asked to bring in five pieces of your writing for detailed feedback. All your pieces may be from the same work, such as a novel in progress, or they may be stand alone pieces. You bring whatever you want to work on.

Besides critiquing pieces, the instructor will give short lectures at the start of class, addressing the needs of the group, and in addition to learning how to critique your own work and receiving constructive suggestions about your writing, you’ll discover that the greatest benefits come from seeing how your classmates approach and critique a piece of writing and how they write and re-write. This is a supportive group and a rewarding class.
