Taking the Leap: Intro to Personal Nonfiction
One problem with having a good story up your sleeve is figuring out how to make it interesting for others. This class is designed for writers who want to try their hand at creative nonfiction, no experience required. We will explore different forms, put words on paper, provide and receive feedback, and tackle the basics of scene, character, dialogue, and more. It is a course designed to develop workshopping skills, though it is not primarily a workshop. Together we will dig deeper into the craft of writing, set goals, and refine our work in a supportive environment.
