 Writing Fantasy: The Rules of MagicInstructor: Janet Lee Carey
Description:
It's
commonly thought that fantasy fiction is easy to write because there
are no rules. Just the opposite is true. Fantasy writers understand that
the vast freedoms of the genre necessitate a strict set of rules. Break
the rules and the magic disappears. How can we create within this
paradox? Whether you're already writing fantasy or interested in trying
the genre, come join us for this interactive workshop with World
Building, Plot and Character Relationship, Mythical Story Sources, and
more. In class we will play with writing games that explore new worlds,
enrich your work, and restore your story passion.

 Deep RevisionInstructor: Waverly Fitzgerald
Description:
For
writers who have already produced a rough draft, this class offers the
opportunity to revise and polish an essay, short story, or book
manuscript. We’ll begin with an overview, examining themes and
structure. Then we’ll tighten our focus to look at the dynamics of each
scene or chapter, the shape of each paragraph, and the efficacy of each
sentence. We’ll discuss publication strategies so writers are ready for
the next step. The goal is to have a piece ready to submit or (for
longer works) a detailed plan for completion.
