Yearlong in Fiction & Creative Nonfiction [Peter Mountford]

CLASS UPDATE: This class is now for both Fiction & Nonfiction writers. The title and course description have been updated from the print catalog to reflect that.

All Levels | This yearlong class is open to fiction and creative nonfiction writers of all stripes — working on novels, memoir, essay, short stories and everything in between — and is designed to help writers meet creative goals/deadlines, and provide concrete and clear feedback on their work. The aim is for students to be producing work that is ready for publication. The class uses an array of workshop and peer-review techniques to build fluency with craft — controlling narrative time, narrative structure, tone, voice — which empowers writers to make intentional creative decisions (instead of feeling like you’re being held hostage by the whims of inspiration). Ultimately, students will gain control over the craft elements in their work, so that they can more easily write and revise with intention.

Payment plans available. Contact registrar@hugohouse.org for more information.
