LIT 561 - Advanced Process Mentorship In Fiction


A Vision of All Possibilities
Credits: 2
Co-requisites: CW 561 
Delivery mode: Online
Degree/Program: Fiction students or MFA Program Director consent
This course focuses on reading and craft analysis in the genre of fiction in support of a student’s creative work. In each monthly packet submitted to the mentor, students are required to include a bibliography, annotations in response to about half to a third of the readings, and a first or final draft of an analysis essay exploring craft in a literary work. By the end of the semester, students have compiled a reading list of 10-15 titles relevant to their own writing process. There are four packet exchanges with the mentor per semester. Fiction students can repeat this course. Students take mentorships in their chosen genre(s) of emphasis and are only allowed to enroll in elective mentorships with permission of the MFA Program Director.
