Fiction Writing Workshop
« back to classes page
If you love to write novels, short stories, or flash fiction and want to improve your writing skills, join us for this workshop focused on the how of writing great fiction. Short stories of published authors, both contemporary and established greats of our time, will be read and discussed. The texts,
The Making of a Story
by Alice LaPlante (W.W. Norton & Co, 2010) and
Gotham City Workshop Writing Fiction
by Alexander Steele (Bloomsbury USA, 2003), will be used to sharpen our knowledge and skills in the elements of craft. Twice during the semester you will submit a written work of up to 25 pages, and will receive oral and written feedback from your peers. Let the narratives of these published works and the creative genius of your peers inspire you to bring the characters and plots of your stories alive. Storytellers of all levels are welcome.
