Writing Workshop in Creative Non-Fiction

3 credits · Graduate credit

The boundaries of creative prose have been massively reconfigured in recent decades. The memoir, the speculative biography, the case study, the investigative essay: all have experimented with new voicings and have unsettled old boundaries. Students in this workshop will produce a substantial portfolio of their own nonfiction writing. Workshop strategies may vary from term to term and from instructor to instructor, but will always include reading and discussion of published work in a variety of modes. This course is open to graduate students both within the MFA Program and without.
