Alternate Realities in Short Fiction
All Levels | This class will focus on short stories that slightly shift reality in order to magnify our awareness of social constructs and the human condition. How do we create and write within these alternate realities? In addition to studying examples from George Saunders, Zadie Smith, Kevin Brockmeier, Karen Russell, and Ursula K Le Guin, we’ll also undertake in-class writing exercises that will help us explore the uncanny and the Kafkaesque.
Due to COVID-19, all classes will take place online until further notice. If there's a possibility that your class might take place in person, you will be notified in advance. Even if classes can be held in person, there will always be a hybrid option to participate via Zoom.
Classes with "Zoom" in the title will be held via Zoom even after our doors open. Classes listed as "Online" will be held on Wet Ink, our platform for asynchronous learning.
All times are listed in Pacific Time.
