CRWR 120 Craft and Process Seminar in Fiction: Topics Course requires that qualified students study the works of writers' processes, styles, techniques and choices by reading and researching published novels, short stories, journals, letters and interviews, as well as author biographies. Students gain in-depth knowledge of the cultural context of authors' works. Students explore the writing processes of well known authors and the ways in which students' own responses to the reading can nourish and heighten the development of their own fiction.
