Students will practice storytelling, short story writing, writing for the stage, and poetry as well as sharpen
their editing skills and learn just what it takes to get published. In each class, students play games that
strengthen their core writing skills, do creativity exercises, and write. In the face-to-face course, we wrap
up with an opportunity for students to read their work to an appreciative audience of family and friends.
This course is ideal for students who love writing and dream of being published some day, but also
for those who are struggling to see the fun side of writing. ESL and special needs students are always welcome.

I liked what Laura covered in the course and that she proof read our work from home and gave us advice
on what we good and what was not. |
