WRTG 200 - Creative Writing Studio - Fall 2018
Welcome to WRTG 200! This is a writing studio class in which we explore the possibilities of language through different contemporary forms of writing. The goal is for you to develop a sustainable writing practice by experimenting with a range of processes and techniques. By participating in the workshops and meeting the weekly deadlines, you will develop the ability to perpetuate a strong creative writing practice within an engaged community of writers.
WRTG 200 - Creative Writing Studio - Fall 2018
Every week, you'll write a creative response to a reading for that week and hand it in during class.
This class functions as a writing workshop. Most weeks you will critique the writing of 4 of your fellow students. So, while your individual work will be critiqued every four weeks, you will critique others’ work almost every week, except the week your own work is presented. Every week check the Moodle site to read the writing, produce and bring written critiques to class the following week.
"Critique is one of the most valuable components of a formal art and design education. It is also one of the most difficult aspects of the art and design school experience, especially for new students. Critique is a collaborative activity that takes quite a bit of time to learn — both in terms of how to give feedback, and how to accept feedback."
Use this space to post writing-related happenings, events, compelling connections, links or literary finds.
