Show Fiction Writing Class Offered The Writer's Studio of Utah announces an upcoming seven week fiction writing course beginning be-ginning July 29. The Thursday evening classes will be taught from 6 to 8 p.m. in the Pleasant Springs Club House. Successful fiction writers not only ignite their reader's imaginations, imagi-nations, but inspire them to believe be-lieve the unbelievable. This -requires skill and craftsmanship of the foundations necessary to develop a captivating story. The Fiction I course, sponsored spon-sored by The Writer's Studio, will teach how to use these basic ba-sic elements of character, plot, point of view, description, dialogue, dia-logue, setting, pacing, voice and theme to create a memorable work. Whatever genre you seek to develop, we can aid in turning ideas into stories people will be eager to read. Students will also learn how and where to market their work. Each week a different aspect as-pect of fiction writing Witt be discussed and applied through writing exercises. From discovering dis-covering one's own voice to creating believable characters and plots, the lessons will give the beginning student the necessary nec-essary tools to craft a marketable market-able short story. The Fiction I course will focus on short story writing and includes lectures, writing writ-ing assignments, critiquing and class participation. The course will be taught by studio directors Randy Jernigan, Geri Taylor and other published fiction fic-tion authors. While the curriculum is geared to the novice student, experienced writers will find the classes informative and valuable. Fiction II, Novel I and II classes will also be offered of-fered in the Fall. |
