Contents: This course focuses on the craft and production of student fiction and on problems of craft and aesthetics as they apply to writing short stories. A traditional prescriptive workshop modeled on the philosophy of William Stafford, the class will be devoted to student work and critiquing skills as well as to the analysis of literary and craft texts. Individual stories and critiques submitted throughout the semester will provide the basis for a final portfolio of work submitted at the semester’s end.
