Sci-fi & Fantasy writing
Entry requirements: This course is open to students at all levels of experience and proficiency.
Learn how to write about enchanted amulets, many-tendriled floating brains, and talking plants. Use fiction to creatively expand on your research, or add depth to your tabletop setting.
In this seven-week course, you will work towards a short piece of fiction. We’ll start with three weeks of writing exercises, followed by three weeks dedicated to a single idea, and conclude with a feedback session where you will hear back from your fellow students. Afterwards, you’ll receive individual feedback on your work.
What you will learn
- How to write about mysterious technologies, novel creatures, and unexplored worlds
- How to thrill and engage readers
- How to turn an idea into your (first?) story
Join the course and create your own world in words.
