Introduction to Prose
Attending to the location and context of writers and poets at work, this course will introduce prose writing and reading as a way of being in the world in general, and here specifically. Through guided writing prompts, group seminars and workshop exercises, students will learn how to receive and provide generative and respectful feedback of each other’s writing. Students will write reflections, creative responses and multiple revisions of their own work. By the end of this course, students will have learned different approaches to writing prose, participated in weekly writing workshops and seminars, read and responded to contemporary works of short fiction and nonfiction, both their own and that of their fellow writers.
