Using a series of in-class writing exercises, explore your particular hidden writing talents so that you may improve them and that all participants may learn from each other. These lessons, coupled with basic rules, can be applied to all types of creative writing. Daily exercises will be given to help you generate new work and learn the elements of successful writing. We will focus on writing new material rather than revising older works, so come with paper and pen--or computer. Share your best work in class and offer feedback on other students' work.
