Life Writing is designed with the idea in mind that within each human life exists a range of intertwining stories. This course works with the concept that truth is stranger (and often more interesting) than fiction. You will have a chance to “map” your life stories visually and verbally, to look at how stories function from different angles, to see practical and philosophical elements of a good story, and to work in a range of genres and styles, with the understanding that each life of stories carries its own voice. You will come away with clearer vision of how to tell a story as well as an understanding of the artistic balance of event and outcome that each story can reveal.
