Writing Nonfiction - 4 credits
This course concentrates on the craft of writing nonfiction, which includes genres and approaches such as memoir, the personal essay, narrative nonfiction, travel writing, humor, criticism, and experimental forms. Class discussions involve some lecture but are structured more as a workshop. Students learn about writing and write about learning. Members of the class are expected to express their ideas about the craft and to workshop their writing. The class is a safe place for writers to share their work with others and to learn from one another.
