The real work of writing happens during the revision stage in the writing process. This course reviews the four stages and focuses on the decisions needed to improve a manuscript. Learn different techniques to rethink pacing and development of your work-in-progress. Participants work with their own manuscripts to complete in-class revision exercises and then share excerpts. Enrollment is limited. Students should bring a short two-page writing sample to the first class.

Enrollment is limited. In this course, designed for beginners or anyone wishing to explore short stories, participants will learn from published examples while applying short fiction techniques to their own writing. We will explore conflict, characterization, viewpoint, and description as they contribute to plot. Tips on using viewpoint and sensory detail to engage readers, as well as story length and structure, are also covered.
