This course focuses on writing and reading about childhood.

Through both creative-writing prompts, essay writing, and journaling, students will mine their own experiences and share their work in a supportive yet rigorous workshop environment. This course includes an intensive reading list, allowing students to examine the ways other writers engage with the subject of childhood and first moments. Craft lectures focus on helping students shape and polish their work.
