Description
This course focuses on the craft and discipline of fiction writing. Students will study writers in the Arab and Western literary tradition, and from that study, they will learn the fundamentals of various rhetorical strategies in fiction, understand how to transform small ideas from daily life into fiction, and consider how their cultural background affects how they tell stories. Students will also learn how to critique other students’ stories in workshops and how to revise and develop their own work.
