INTRO TO CREATIVE WRITING
CREATIVE WRITING | AN INTRODUCTION
INSTRUCTOR: JACQUELINE VIOLA MOULTON
This class is for anyone who has any interest in the art and craft of creative writing. This class is for anyone at any level, but beginners are absolutely encouraged and welcomed. This course is an introduction and overview of creative writing and we will explore and practice together many different writing genres, styles, and ways of expression. This class will be a supportive, open, and safe place to attempt new ways to express ourselves and our worlds through writing. Each week we will explore different genres and then over the week while we are on our own we will complete a writing piece to bring back and share with the group.
This class will cover short-story, poetry, essay, fiction, non-fiction, and a genre of your choice!
MATERIALS
A lined notebook to do stream-of-conscious writing in. A notebook of any kind (suggested). You will need whatever writing supplies you prefer.
