Advanced Creative Nonfiction

Tom Amorose

MWF 12:00-12:50 p.m.

This course is for students who want to continue writing literary nonfiction after taking the intro-level course in the genre. You don’t have to be an aspiring writer to be in this course, but you may be sitting next to one during workshops, which will be kind and supportive no matter how good you are at nonfiction. 

You’ll be given freedom to go deep in writing about yourself and on a topic that really means something to you.  This course gives you the time to stretch out and explore your talent.
