Meeting Time: TuTh 2-3:15pm
Section: 0002
Please check eCampus for up-to-date meeting times and location.


This course will explore techniques for approaching and developing your writing from a practice perspective. You will learn techniques for generating and delivering polished and thoughtful work. We will focus on the importance of point of view, context, individual experience, bias, and clarity of language and grammar. Writing exercises will be both creative and academic and will reflect the interests and areas of study of course participants. There will also be a movement component (yoga, stretching, warm ups) that we will incorporate into our writing. We will work as a class to help each student access and refine their unique voice.
