Writing Fiction - Learning from the Greats: F. Scott Fitzgerald
Tuesday 5th until Friday 8th July 2022
Immersing oneself in the literature of the Western canon is like slipping back in time and having a tête-à-tête with its greatest writers. In this course, aimed at both beginning and intermediate writers interested in short stories, novellas or the novel, we will use lectures and writing exercises to explore the literature of F. Scott Fitzgerald, and see what we can learn from the greats.
