Fiction Workshop–Learning from the Masters

10 session non-credit course through Emerson College Professional
Studies beginning May 27

This workshop is for people who want to think like a writer
thinks—considering both inspiration and technique. In order to uncover
the secrets of great writing, our class will  analyze classic short
stories, getting  at the heart of plot, character, dialogue, and
style.  Throughout the course, students will then use these lessons to
write their own stories for workshop.
