Class Description:

In this creative writing course, students will explore elements of creative writing including plot, point of view, character, setting, dialogue, narration, and author’s voice.  Students will discuss these elements as they appear in their favorite author’s works and in the student’s own writing.  Students will engage in the writing process themselves, with the choice of creating multiple short works of fiction or one long work.  Students will have regular opportunities to give and receive peer feedback. This class is appropriate for students who have taken PEARL’s Zoom Creative Writing classes previously, and for new students.
