Creative Writing and Publishing

Students will cultivate their creativity and communication skills to become engaged thinkers about the media they create and participate in, and develop awareness of their role as ethical citizens with an entrepreneurial spirit in writing and publishing. In this course, students follow their writing interests and passions and engage in opportunities to write in a variety of genres that encourage them to experiment with new ideas, concepts, and processes in various communication forms and media. Students will create and manage their own portfolios. All levels of creative writers are welcome to join, whether you are interested in fiction, non-fiction, or simply publication!

The final project each semester is to create a collaborative class anthology that will be published through Amazon and available for purchase. Course fees will pay for your copy of the anthology. Upon the completion of this course, you will be able to call yourself a published author and be able to start developing your writer's resume.
