“I think I've really improved as a writer. I learned ... there are endless themes, structures, and styles to use. I was able to take this and translate it to my own writing. It also helped me make sure that every sentence I wrote served a purpose. Some of the things that stuck with me the most are "rate of revelation per page" and giving the reader 2 and 2 instead of 4. These were techniques and ideas that I knew worked but I didn't know exactly what they were or why they were so effective. It was really helpful to learn about them ... and discover why they worked, and I know that these are things that will stick with me as I continue my writing career.”
S.K., Past Student“I sparked a new love for short fiction, and learned that there can be so many hidden details and themes in good short fiction pieces. I never knew that I could uncover such a deeper meaning in stories. I loved the way you structured [the course]; well organized. As for my writing, I thought it improved greatly when I learned about how the smallest details can add the most details about characters.”
