Publishing Problems
AS.004.341 (02)

Why did “Cat Person” go viral? What’s an earnout bonus? How did the Black Lives Matter movement change the publishing landscape? And who is the bad art friend, anyway? In this class, we’ll ask these questions and more as we research the world of book publishing, taking a particularly close look at literary controversies. We’ll read literary work, essays, and journalism related to the book business alongside legislation, school board meeting minutes, and court records to understand what the publishing industry is, how it works, and where it’s headed. In addition to performing and writing research, we’ll meet industry professionals and examine publishing documents like profit and loss requisitions, book contracts, and press releases to familiarize ourselves with the language used by publishers, editors, and agents. Finally, we’ll look at the local publishing ecosystem, which includes academic presses, independent publishers, literary journals and zines, book reviewers, bookstores, reading series, and more. All undergraduates at sophomore level and above are welcome.

The Mothers of Gynecology
AS.004.341 (04)

Deirdre Cooper Owens argues that the experimental and pioneering work performed on enslaved Black women such as Anarcha, Betsy, and Lucy, by Dr. James Marion Sims, who is known as the father of gynecology, has been overshadowed in America’s understanding of American gynecology. In this writing intensive course, we will explore the role of Black enslaved women in the formation of the field of American gynecology. We will examine the writing about enslaved Black midwives, nurses, and Black women whose medical practices and bodies were deemed inferior and flawed yet provided foundational knowledge for white practitioners in the mid-1800s. Potential readings include Deirdre Cooper Owens’ Medical Bondage: Race Gender and the Origins of American Gynecology, Deborah Gray Whites’ Ar’nt I a Woman?, and Marie Jenkins Schwartz’s Birthing a Slave: Motherhood and Medicine in the Antebellum South. Throughout the term, students will conduct their own research and write to combine these conversations with contemporary discussions surrounding Black maternal health, Black midwives, birthing justice, and reproductive justice more broadly. This course will culminate with an academic conference where students will present their research to an audience of their peers. All undergraduates at sophomore level and above are welcome.

The Craft of Fiction: First to Final Drafts
AS.220.200 (02)

Writing and revision are fundamental to any writer's process, but the specific techniques, approaches, and theory behind drafting and revising work sometimes gets short shrift in writing classes. In this course, students will read stories and craft essays that present novel approaches to drafting and revision and will each workshop two stories. Parallel texts will include short stories and craft essays by writers including Julie Otsuka, Charles Baxter, Jamel Brinkley, Tracey Rose Peyton, Sarah Majka, and more. By testing revision practices suggested by other writers, students will gain greater insight into their own drafting and revision processes while also honing their work.

The Craft of Fiction: Narrative Perch
AS.220.200 (01)

Writing your way into a story is often a matter of figuring out the right “perch,” i.e., the point from which the story is told. In this workshop-centered course, students will explore elements of perch such as point of view, field of view, psychic distance, immediacy, and retrospection. Readings from writers including Lucia Berlin, Anthony Veasna So, Domenico Starnone, Justin Torres, Deesha Philyaw, Elena Ferrante, Victor LaValle, Xuan Juliana Wang, Kathleen Collins, Tao Lin, and Jhumpa Lahiri will inform our discussions of perch and inspire writing exercises in and out of class. Students will write, workshop, and revise stories of their own.

The Craft of Fiction: Conflict and Dramatic Tension

“[I]n literature, only trouble is interesting,” Janet Burroway says in Writing Fiction. Conflict is often referred to as the heart or the engine of a story: in this workshop-centered course, we’ll investigate conflict within short fiction, with a focus on narrative questions and suspense. Readings from writers including Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, David Bezmozgis, Jamel Brinkley, Mary Gaitskill, and Carmen Maria Machado will inform our discussions and inspire writing exercises in and out of class. Students will write, workshop, and revise stories of their own.

The Craft of Poetry: Clarity and Complexity
AS.220.201 (01)

In this workshop-centered course, we'll read, discuss, and write poems that are concerned with the relationship between clarity and complexity. In a world of mystery and chaos, how do we (and why should we) be concerned with clarity and precision? How might a poet concerned with communicating something "true" about human experience contend with ambivalence, ambiguity, and uncertainty? Together we'll explore prosodic and formal strategies for enhancing both the clarity and complexity of our work. We'll discuss what makes certain poems unclear and what makes others vivid and precise even as they take mystery and confusion as their very subjects.

The Craft of Fiction: Sparking and Shaping: An Introductory Fiction Workshop
AS.220.200 (04)

Writing fiction requires two kinds of work which can seem very different from each other on the surface. On the one hand, writing fiction requires that the writer be open, messy, and experimental as they seek to locate both their unique voice and their subject matter, those essences that will make their writing stand out from anyone else’s. On the other hand, writing fiction requires the writer to understand craft conventions, to be their own most rigorous editor, and to know when and how to shape the material to best serve their reader. In this class we’ll explore this fundamental contradiction between the wild, generative side of writing fiction and the buttoned down, disciplined side. We’ll do this by reading and analyzing short works by outstanding fiction writers, completing exercises focused on individual aspects of craft, experimenting with writing prompts that will help excavate that unique material we all possess without knowing quite what to do with it, and finally, by sharing our work with classmates. Students should come prepared to complete reading and writing assignments every week, to do in-class writing prompts every class meeting, and to share their work with each other and provide attentive, supportive, specific written feedback to each other.
