This course is designed to help students write their own poems and stories, as well as provide
insight into the way that literature is created by individual writers working within or against a
tradition.  The class will meet as a large group on Mondays for lectures about the elements of
poetry and fiction, in-class exercises, poetry and fiction readings, and tests.  The two weekly
section meeting will be conducted as workshops.  Students must make Xerox copies of their
written work for everyone in their section, and should take this into account when figuring the
cost of the course.
