CW 602 MFA Fiction Workshop

Through discussion of their own and published fiction, students will explore how writers construct character, voice, suspense, story, etc. they will also discuss the more hazy area of process. Students in the workshop will read recently published fiction, discussion what makes this work successful and how they, as writers, can learn from it, while writing and critiquing their own work in a responsible and constructive manner. Students will be expected to present their own work to the workshop at least twice during the term.
