Semester: Fall - 2019

Description:
The class will be taught by Professor Clifford Chase.
In this hands-on writing workshop, students will explore the many possibilities for personal essay, both in their own writing and through readings that cover a variety of nonfiction subcategories, such as profile, writing about place, and inventive forms of analysis and autobiography. Readings include pieces by Jorge Luis Borges, Joe Brainard, Sheila Heti, Yusef Komunyakaa, and Dawn Lundy Martin. Writing assignments and discussion of students’ work will take participants through the creative process, from brief (ungraded) experiments to first draft (10 to 12 pages) to final revision.
