Fiction II

In Fiction II, we’ll briefly review the basics of character, conflict, and plot, then focus on the building blocks of point of view, setting, scene, pacing, and dialogue, with an eye toward creating a compelling voice that draws the reader into—and through—a well-rounded story. Students will do in-class or take-home writing exercises, read and discuss published stories, and workshop their own drafts in a supportive environment with their teacher and peers.
