ENGL 0381 - Advanced Prose Writing
Credits: 3
This course is an advanced workshop in writing, revising, and submitting for publication a substantial project in prose. Options include: novella, memoir, a collection of short stories or creative nonfiction. This course will emphasize how to compose and market a cohesive collection and develop a distinct signature voice. Special emphasis will be given to developing themes through the exploration of prose elements such as symbolism, plot development, and transformation. A deeper consideration of narrative form and voice is also made possible by the diversity of forms the class can choose from for their semester-long projects. The class is structured as a studio workshop with mandatory individual conferences with the professor. Requirements include a public reading from the projects and submission of work for publication in nationally distributed literary journals and presses.
Prerequisites: ENGL 0130 and either ENGL 0242 or ENGL 0241 .
