The discussion sections will include discussions of the visitors' work, but the main emphasis will be on your own writing: you will be asked to write and revise regularly and to complete three creative portfolios through a progression of exercises in poetry, fiction, and nonfiction. Some topics: finding your material;imagery; rhythm and sound; writing from memory; character and plot; landscape andsetting; revision and composition

You will revise your creative work in response to feedback, and of course, will give feedback to your classmates as well.

At the same time, you will engage with the literary community by reading and listening to active local writers, and by visiting at least one public reading or event.
