This is the class where each week, you write something you’re genuinely excited to read aloud to your classmates, mostly fictional passages, but sometimes other kinds of work.
- There is always work outside of class because we use class mostly for reading your pieces aloud. You get your pieces written between classes!
- This class is FIRE, people, based on the idea that you should only bother writing what you’re super-pumped to share. When you do this the way it’s meant to be done, it feels like being in the best writing class there ever was.
- Drafting all your work in a single google document opened directly from the assignment is required. If you have another method, take a different class.
- Reading your pieces aloud exactly as written is required. No editing on the fly. If you don’t want your work to sound sloppy and mistaken when you read it, don’t turn in sloppy and mistake-laden work.
- You may request that I read one of your pieces aloud in order to hear your own work read by a former voice artist and narrator.
- Late work erodes the value of this class for everyone, including you. If you are not committed to having your work ready on time, please find another class to take. If you submit work late more than once, expect to be asked to leave the class.
