Average Course Rating

This course is for students who have made significant progress on a novel and are looking for help in bringing the book closer to completion. “Significant progress” here might mean you’ve written a hundred pages, or it could mean you’ve finished a complete draft. This hybrid course will meet 3-5 times onsite; during the rest of the course, students will work one-on-one with the instructor on issues particularly relevant to the novels they are writing. Class discussions may focus on general concepts of novel structure, plot points and character arcs, along with advice on publishing. There may be some workshop aspects, but the bulk of the course will focus on one-on-one interaction with the instructor giving singular attention to each individual student’s novel. While students who have completed Fiction Techniques and one previous Fiction Workshop will be on firmer ground in this course, there are no prerequisites; any student who has made “significant progress” on a novel may enroll.
