このクラスで学べること
Students will learn through active discussion. Using a combination of writing prompts, activities, and examples, we will examine each new concept . Here is a breakdown of what will be taught each day: Day 1: To Plot or Not to Plot? (outlining techniques, using plot points to structure a story arc, when to throw the outline in the trash) Day 2: Flawed Heroes and Not-So-Evil Villains (creating dynamic characters, using and breaking stereotypes, choosing point of view) Day 3: Perfect Details (figurative language to evoke the imagery, style and taste, thinking past clichés, when less is more) Day 4: Show and Tell (using action and dialogue to tell your story, correcting passive voice) Day 5: Dialogue (quotation marks, listening like an author, dialogue tags) Day 6: Smashing Through Writer's Block (motivation, building a writing regimen, anticipating the soggy middle) Day 7: The Art of Critique (sharing work, giving and receiving suggestions, finding writers groups, the importance of a writer's tribe) Day 8: Cutthroat Publishing (how words become books, query letters, agents, editors, self-publishing, dealing with rejection)
学習到達目標
Students will acquire the concrete tools of writing fiction, learn to manage time and maintain motivation, and gain an understanding of publishing. Just as importantly, they'll learn they can do this! So much of writing a novel depends on courage, grit, and the belief that it can be done. Interacting with an instructor who knows they can do it and like-minded students will embolden them.

I provide all materials. Students may complete their assignments on computers or write them out by hand--I know authors who do both! If they write by hand, they will need to scan or take pictures of assignments to send to me.
