Course Catalog
Nonfiction Startup
Come with a shiny new idea or a clunky third draft, and we’ll get your project moving forward. Class exercises will include strategies for focusing in on the core of your story as well as developing your draft with clarity and purpose. We’ll discuss the basic elements of creative nonfiction, such as character, voice, and scene, and practice using them as tools for telling stories. We’ll read leading nonfiction voices for inspiration and hold a workshop for gathering feedback.
Beginning Fall 2021, we will be adding select in-person classes back to our course catalog. The majority of our classes will still be offered via Zoom.
If a class says IN-PERSON in its title, it will take place in person at our permanent home in Seattle.
If a class says ASYNCHRONOUS in its title, it will take place on Wet Ink, our asynchronous learning platform.
If a class does not have a marker after its title, it will take place via Zoom.
