Short Story Writing is a course open to students outside of the Creative Writing program. It will introduce you to key aspects of writing short stories, including themes, genre, voice, structure and experimentation. You will explore the short story form through the analysis of a range of short stories by local and international writers, and develop short story writing skills through writing exercises and discussion. You will be expected to have your writing workshopped at least once during the semester—i.e. a writing sample will be presented for peer and lecturer critique in your tutorial.
