Fiction Writing - Novella

Graduate

Creative Writing Instructor : Alan Lelchuk, MALS This writing workshop focuses primarily on the longer fictional forms (the novella and the long story). Writing experience is preferred but is not a prerequisite. Emphasis is placed on student work, but a good number of published stories and novellas are looked at as well. Classes consist of discussions, analyses, and readings. The aims of the course are to help the young writer understand and practice the longer forms of fiction, to read those forms more judiciously and from a writer's point of view, and to raise his or her own levels of prose to a high literary standard.
