Telling Tales: The Art and Fun of Writing Fiction
November 15, 2022 @ 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm
$25.00 – $30.00
This four-part writing class will take place November 15, 22, 29, and December 6, 5:00-7:00PM on Zoom.
In appreciation of National Novel Writing Month*, dive into fiction writing with published author Callie Bates! This class will be a mix of theory, discussion and experience. Learn how to structure a novel (or short fiction), develop a character arc, and write a powerful narrative–then take those recommendations and break the mold by doing things your own way. We will also discuss the creative process and how you can bring a writing practice into your daily or weekly life.
Each class will include dedicated time for writing in response to prompts. Students will have the option of reading their work aloud and receiving some (kind and positive) feedback from the instructor and their fellow participants.
Some homework will be assigned; doing it is recommended but not required. It’s a good idea to stockpile a couple of your favorite books for inspiration and study, if you don’t already own them.
This class will focus on writing fiction of any length–while the emphasis will most likely linger on novels, students are welcome to be working on any form and length of fiction.
