CREATIVE WRITING (Grades 10-12)
(ENG1015) 

Maybe you’re interested in storytelling. Perhaps you’re looking for an outlet for your imagination.  Or you might just want to find ways to jumpstart your creativity. No matter the case, creative writing can meet your needs. Creative writing is a project-based course that explores three major modes of free expression: prose, poetry, and drama. Students learn to tap into their creativity to invent characters, establish conflicts, and build worlds through time-tested exercises, innovative activities, and a close study of published pieces. Students serious about creative writing beyond academia will also have an opportunity to learn the publishing process; work-shopping and critiquing play an important role. This course is suitable for students of all writing abilities; however, it is work-intensive and students must make strict deadlines on projects.
