Intensive
Creative Writing isn't for beginners; it's
for people who are working on their own writing projects. You’ll be asked to
bring in several 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, such as short stories or essays or a picture book manuscript. You bring
whatever you want to work on.
Besides critiquing pieces, the instructor will give
short lectures 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 challenging course, but extremely rewarding.
Fee: $256.64 + hst = $290
