Description of Live Creative Writing Class:

This class is suitable for any student with an inclination towards creative writing. Some students love writing stories, others poems, and others like to draw and write manga, and more. No matter their creative persuasion, young writers will find something for them here.

The purpose of this class is to build skills and inspire creativity. Students will be given assignments both enjoyable and challenging to feed and stretch their artistic capacities. I expect them to try new things to shape themselves into well-rounded writers. Just as a professional athlete would train, lift weights, run sprints, etc., so too will our exercises strengthen the students’ writing capacities. They will also laugh a lot.

Student work will be looked over and feedback will be given.
