*Advanced Creative Writing

This advanced creative writing course emphasizes the development of skills in the making and study of prose, drama, narrative story writing, and poetry. We utilize an intensive workshop atmosphere where students regularly share their writing and provide feedback to their peers. Students in this course develop a beginning knowledge of publishing as they submit their writing to established sources and help create the MHS art and literary magazine. This course is interactive, and project based. Students will develop their own campus creativity projects to benefit the MHS community.
