English 120-02: Intro to Creative Writing (Healey)

M 7:00-10:00pm Old Main 009

This course offers students introductory practice in three genres of creative writing: poetry, fiction, and creative nonfiction. Students will be required to submit at least three pieces of writing for each genre, and then revise some of this work for a final portfolio. Throughout the semester we'll also write spontaneously in class, in directed exercises that complement the formal, out-of-class assignments. We'll examine the published work of contemporary writers, and you'll be required to write brief, informal analyses of these readings. No tests, but plenty of writing and reading each week. Attendance and participation required.
