Buena Vista University - Interim Session

Fiction Writing Workshop

This course is for the student who would like to explore creative writing and has an interest in writing short stories or novels. In this class we will read a variety of contemporary short stories to gain a better understanding of genre, short shorts, dirty realism, imagistic narrative, and both fabulist and formal fiction, which is to say we will have a lot of fun reading different stories and then trying to apply what we learn to our own stories.
