Course description

The central principal of this course is that by studying the techniques of creative writing, we can vastly improve our legal writing. To that end, we’ll explore a variety of literary forms – from short story to poem, TV script to graphic novel. By learning to pay closer attention to words, sentences, and paragraphs, we will cultivate both greater facility and greater confidence with language.

To become better writers, we must also become better readers, which is why we’ll divide our time between reading and writing. Course sessions will consist of in-class readings, short craft lectures, group discussions, writing exercises and prompts, workshops, and revisions. You should expect to read, write, and share work – and to constructively give and receive feedback. By the end of the course, you will have developed a basic understanding of narrative craft and hopefully had some fun along the way. Our primary goal will be to make your writing more precise, legible, and engaging. We’ll also develop practices for accessing and unleashing creativity and using language to think outside the box.

The course will be taught mostly in English, but students may write in German or English. No previous creative writing experience is required. Course will be held live in a WebEx room on Wednesdays from 4pm to 7pm (not 4:15 to 6:45). There will be 7 sessions, most of which will be synchronous (though 2 or 3 will be asynchronous). If you have a scheduling conflict and cannot commit to coming to the live sessions, please do not enroll in this class; it will be offered again!
