Three weeks of generative prompts focusing on the craft of writing micro as well as writing for specific markets.
Course fee: $100
Less Is More: Writing Micro
Fall 2022: October 24 – November 21 (Class full: Taking wait list names)
Winter 2023: January 9 – February 5 (Class full: Taking wait list names)
This four-week class will be limited to twelve participants in order to guarantee an experience that is both fun and productive.
Here’s how it will go down: During the first two weeks of class, you’ll generate micros (fiction or nonfiction, fewer than 300 words) in response to each of six prompts. Each prompt will be preceded by a brief piece of (published) prose and a short discussion of the aspects of craft — characterization, setting, point of view, and structure – that are key to an effective piece of short prose.
During Weeks Three and Four, you’ll revise and share two of your prompts in an informal workshop that’s designed to be both constructive and helpful.
Course fee: $110
