ENGL258 Fiction Writing

Students will study elements of fiction in greater depth, read and analyze the techniques of established authors, and practice incorporating these elements and strategies in creating their own original fictional works. Emphasis will be placed on narrative structure, plot, point of view, characterization, setting, dialogue, use of figurative language, and theme. This workshop-style course will include writing exercises, written and verbal analysis, self-assessments, peer and instructor feedback, and revision and editing, as well as an examination of paths to publication and appropriate submission preparation.  CORE: AH
