There’s still time to take an INTRO Creative Writing class this year! Playwriting and Fiction classes begin March 23.

Do you write (or want to write) short stories, novels, plays, etc.?  Do you want a space to discuss and improve your work?  Sign up for INTRO!

INTRO is a non-credit creative writing workshop taught by graduate students from the School of the Arts.  The classes are peer workshops and will help you build a portfolio of writing as well as allow you to receive feedback from your peers and teacher.  At the end of the semester, you’ll have an opportunity (voluntary!) to share your work in a reading with other INTRO classes.
