CREATIVE WRITING
UCEAP Quarter Units

UCEAP Semester Units

Course Description
This course explores the basic elements of imaginative writing – image and voice – concentrating attention on the central writing practices of “seeing” and “saying.” The emphasis is on deepening and honing perception, exploring concrete and energetic imagery, and developing awareness of the cadence and impact of voice. Each lecture discusses techniques and structures central to vital imagery and compelling voice, and examines these techniques in action through close analysis of selected poetry and prose. Workshop exercises stimulate the application of these discoveries to individual writing, challenging experimentation with aspects of image and voice through direct engagement with the page. Work-in-progress generated by these exercises are presented weekly for constructive critique within compulsory workshop sessions, producing a portfolio for final assessment.
