The Art of Editing
Explore the art of editing with director and publisher at Graywolf Press, Fiona McCrae. We will follow examples of pages from fiction, nonfiction, and poetry through the editing process identifying important structural edits and line edits that strengthened the text. Students should bring a page or two of their own work with, as we apply the techniques we’ve gleaned.
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.
