This course will focus on writing and reading about childhood. Together, we'll explore the concept of writing as a healing art and discover the many ways writing nonfiction can shape and make sense of past experiences and offer new pathways to personal growth. Through both creative essay prompts and journaling, students will mine their own experiences and share their work in a supportive yet rigorous workshop environment. This course will include an intensive reading list, allowing us to examine the ways other writers engage with the subject of childhood. Craft lectures will focus on helping students shape and polish their work and prepare it for possible publication.
