This course is designed as an introductory creative writing workshop with an emphasis on prose writing. It intends to acquaint the students with basic writing craft and terminologies, and give a broad introduction to creative practice in the writing of fiction. The first half of the semester will focus on the micro aspects of prose writing (how to order words for emphasis, how to establish a pattern in a paragraph, then give it a twist, etc.); second half, the course is geared towards the examination of storytelling in a macro scope (character orchestration, Aristotle’s narrative structure etc.).
