Micro fiction

Can you master the art of extreme brevity? The challenge of micro or flash fiction is to tell a complete story in which every word is absolutely essential. This course will help you to generate ideas for micro fiction, and teach you to peel away the frills and lace until you've reached the hard, clean-scraped core of a story.

Students like: "the suggestions and tools given to approach writing microfiction in different ways"; "the in-class wrtiting exercises"; "getting and giving feedback on our own stories in a group"; "developing skills and gaining confidence."
