A seminar on various genres of storytelling.
This seminar leads you on an exploration of short storytelling forms such as flash and the traditional short story. Participants will explore examples of these forms, consider literary elements, and discuss particular styles and traits associated with various genres, from literary (character-driven) to speculative. The seminar also offers brief exercises to engage you in creative writing in order to support your developing practice. Participants will also consider the "Submittable" service as a tool for submitting written material to literary journals.
