Class Description

Description

If you’re a writer looking to learn more about incorporating perspective, point of view, and narrative distance into your work, then this class is for you.

In this writing workshop, you’ll explore a range of options available to you focused on using perspective and point of view in your writing. We’ll read published stories by Anton Chekhov, Tobias Wolff, Carolyn Ferrell, Jennine Capo Crucet, and more.

We’ll engage in a variety of exercises in first, second, and third person point of view, explore the concept of “psychic” or “narrative” distance, and learn how to smoothly transition from one point of view to another without the dreaded horror of “head hopping.”

This class is ideal for writers who already have a basic familiarity with character, plot, and setting or landscape. In the final class, we will exchange short story drafts for peer feedback; you’ll also receive feedback from the instructor.
