    Description
    In this course, students read and write creative nonfiction prose. The course focuses on theory, technique and practical discipline of writing creative nonfiction, and examines models from various categories of prose (the personal essay, memoir, the lyric essay, the experimental essay, nature and travel writing, profiles, and others). Students discuss the craft and techniques of creative nonfiction storytelling and present original prose of one's own work for critical discussion.
