Course Description
This is an introductory creative writing course designed to acquaint students with the craft of writing and the skills that will be required in subsequent creative writing workshops.

Students will be expected to submit a number of writing exercises, including stories and poems. Students will improve their writing skills through peer conferencing, peer editing, class workshopping, and teacher evaluation. It is the expectation that students will read and comment on their peers' writing with thoughtful and constructive criticism, as well as read and discuss published work. NCAA Approved. |
