Description

This course includes a detailed examination of the formal aspects of poetry. Students will examine the constraints and freedoms of poetic form and undertake the task of writing poetry in a range of forms. Examples of narrative style will be examined and part of the course will focus on the work of contemporary short fiction writers. Students will write several stories of their own in order to develop their understanding of narrative technique. The course may also include reading and writing in other genres, such as memoir.
