This is an advanced prose/fiction writing class, which means that the bulk of the responsibility for the success of this class is based on the writing students produce for the class and the critique of the writing done by their classmates.

The goal of the class is to prepare students for more independent writing, self-critique, and more advanced levels of fiction writing such as the examination of various narrative strategies and genre flexibility. The focus on the writing is centered more on revision and understanding craft that may lead to producing publishable fiction.

The class will also prepare students for submitting work for entry into graduate MFA creative writing programs.

Prerequisites:

ENGL 383, 384
