Escritura creativa: giros y vueltas en la escritura de misterio

DESCRIPTION
We will begin by reviewing the basics of Mystery Writing. Then learners will follow prompts to begin their stories, OR students can work on an idea they already have in mind. We will (loosely) use the Iowa Writing Workshop style format to create, share, then hear feedback from each other. This is the most effective way to write/edit/revise creative works. 

I am a positive and passionate instructor who believes that a writer is one who writes! All that is required is a genuine interest in Mystery writing. Come with an open and creative mind to enjoy this special way to unlock the imagination.
