This course is an introduction to writing fiction: each week, we devote ourselves to a different craft topic. We’ll examine several short stories with an eye for how authors control elements such as point of view, character development, and worldbuilding. Students will have time to practice new skills and share their work in class. All levels are welcome.
This four-week class is $185. All classes will take place at Stone Soup Books located at 150 Race Ave. in Waynesboro, VA.
