A first course in writing fiction. Emphasis will be on experimentation as well as on developing skill and craft. Workshop (discussion) format.

Spring semester, online only, Visiting Writer Myint: This course is a discussion-based writing workshop that will require your weekly synchronous attendance, as well as your participation in asynchronous discussion forums and writing exercises. Also, though this is an online course, I am open to the possibility of creating in-person opportunities for students on campus, especially as the semester progresses.
