CCRWT 3400 Genre Fiction Seminar

The Genre Fiction Seminar refines fiction writing skills developed in The Art and Craft of Short Fiction through the discussion, practice, and critique of short stories in a popular genre: science fiction, fantasy, horror, crime/detective, mystery, or suspense/thriller. By studying and practicing those elements that comprise the genre, students will gain a fuller understanding of the nature of short stories and they will engage in a deeper connection with their own writing of the form.
