Creative Writing Course Description: Aspiring young writers explore and practice the art and craft of creative writing. During the course, students will practice storytelling, short story writing, writing for the stage, and poetry as well as sharpen their editing skills and learn just what it takes to get published. In each class, students play games that strengthen their core writing skills, do creativity exercises, and write. In the face-to-face course, we wrap up with an opportunity for students to read their work to an appreciative audience of family and friends. This course is ideal for students who love writing and dream of being published some day, but also for those who are struggling to see the fun side of writing.
