Crafting the Essay Collection [Gail Folkins]

Students will write and workshop two creative nonfiction essays linked by voice and theme. This course can inspire the start of a collection, or it may build on a work in progress. The choice of genre is yours, whether memoir or travel, nature writing or literary journalism. In a workshop format, we will discuss essay order and ways to link your essays. In addition, the course will cover proposal-writing strategies.
