In this follow-up to Beginning Fiction, we’ll go over more advanced concepts in writing fiction such as plot development, looking for holes in your stories, tying up loose ends, and how style and craft can strengthen your writing. As in Beginning Fiction, we’ll do lots of in-class writing, with weekly opportunities to submit work to the instructor for detailed feedback.
