Instructor: Jeremy Townley
For writers at all levels
This class is ideal for novice and experienced writers alike who are looking to spark ideas for fiction projects or develop ones already in-progress. Class time will be spent generating new work and students will also study model stories and give and receive critiques in a collaborative, supportive workshop environment. At the end of the class, writers will have completed eight to ten generative exercises and established a consistent writing practice.
Jeremy Townley’s work has appeared in Collier’s, Harvard Review, Hayden’s Ferry Review, Prairie Schooner, The Threepenny Review, and other magazines and journals. He has taught writing and literature at the University of Portland, Pacific University, and Gotham Writers’ Workshop.
