W103 is an introduction to the writing of poetry and fiction.  Students will attend a weekly
lecture designed to introduce them to aspects of craft in poetry and fiction, and also meet twice
weekly in discussion/workshop sections, which are taught by associate instructors.  Students will
be asked to attend all sessions regularly, to read and write about poetry and fiction from the
course texts, to write creative exercises, and to fully draft at least four poems and a full short
story.  Although exams will be given based on the poetry and fiction units covered in Monday
lectures, the major focus of the course will be on the student's own writing and original creative
work.  Probable texts:  J. D. McClatchy, THE VINTAGE BOOK OF CONTEMPORARY
POETRY, James Pickering, FICTION 100 (7th edition).
