Class Description

After taking 6 Weeks, 6 Stories at GrubStreet you have a treasure trove of tales that you're ready to revise and polish for publication. In this advanced course, we will focus on revising short fiction to discover new angles in our storytelling and bring out the best in our drafts. Each class will include a short lecture on a specific advanced craft element. We will also complete in-class diagnostic exercises on already-written work and then take those drafts home to revise. Students will have three opportunities to submit these revisions for workshop over the course of the class. You’ll leave invigorated with up to six story revisions, three workshopped stories, and a game plan for revising and completing your drafts in progress. Students should come to class with at least one story in mind that they'd like to revise.

Note: This class will meet every other Monday, beginning September 14th.

Zoom Participation:

In our experience, the intimate nature of a writing workshop benefits from on-camera participation. Students are of course welcome to turn their camera off whenever they need to, but it is a community norm for cameras to be on most of the time. You can learn more about using Zoom here.

Zoom Accessibility:

You can enable closed captioning at any time during the meeting by clicking the CC button at the bottom of the screen. If you'd like to access the transcript after class, please make sure to let your instructor ahead of time that you'd like a copy.
