Publishing Problems
TTh 10:30AM - 11:45AM
Brown, Nate
Shriver Hall 104
Fall 2023
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
TTh 10:30AM - 11:45AM
Wright, Lisa E.
Bloomberg 172
Fall 2023
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: Sparking and Shaping: An Introductory Fiction Workshop
W 1:30PM - 4:00PM
Choi, Susan
Gilman 79
Fall 2023
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.

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.

Fall 2023
While the focus of the course will be workshopping student stories (each student will workshop two or three stories during the semester), we’ll also discuss debut stories by first-time published authors, examining how their stories are distinguished by their subject matter, their use of craft and technique, and how they might speak to the times we live—and write—in now. Completion of Intermediate Fiction is required for admission.

Readings in Fiction: Race, Passing, and Performance
W 3:00PM - 5:30PM
Evans, Danielle V
Gilman 313
Fall 2023
This course will explore the context and craft of racial passing texts in the U.S, asking students to think critically about literal passing narratives and their persistence over time, and more broadly about how we write about cultural passing, codeswitching, and identity as conscious performance. We’ll start with texts that ground us in the genre—Chopin, Larsen, Fauset, Ellison, and Morrison—and read our way into contemporary texts, potentially including work by Danzy Senna, Mat Johnson, Brit Bennett, Min Jin Lee, and Marcelo Hernandez Castillo. Students will write a critical paper, a craft paper, and a short story or novella.

Martin, Joe
Gilman 10
Fall 2023
A seminar and workshop in playwriting with Dr. Joe Martin, playwright and dramaturge. Student writers, developing their plays, will learn how to open up to the creative process, “brainstorm,” refine their work, and shape it toward an act of artistic communication. Writer’s techniques, such as attending to plot or “story,” delineation of character, creating effective “dialog,” even overcoming “writer’s block,” will be addressed. This course is designed to be complementary to – not a replacement for – playwriting classes in the Writing Seminars.

Intermediality: Between Word, Image, and Sound
TTh 10:30AM - 11:45AM
Stine, Kyle J.
Krieger 205
Spring 2024
This course explores film adaptation by considering how words, images, and sounds offer different affordances and constraints for creative expression. A central goal is to conceive of adaptation outside of typical discussions of fidelity to a source work and instead consider how different artistic media open up unique opportunities for storytelling. To this end, we will draw on a number of different intermedial translations, which may include from novel to film (The Night of the Hunter, from Davis Grubb’s book to James Agee’s screenplay to Charles Laughton’s film), from short story to film (The Turin Horse), from graphic novel to film (Ghost World) or television series (HBO’s Watchmen), from personal essay to documentary film (James Baldwin’s The Devil Finds Work and I Am Not Your Negro), from poetry to film (O Brother, Where Art Thou), from play to film (A Raisin in the Sun and My Own Private Idaho), from radio drama to film (Sorry, Wrong Number), and film-to-film homage (Far From Heaven and All That Heaven Allows). We will also delve into the vagaries of film-to-book novelizations and the curious case of concurrently writing film and book, as in Stanley Kubrick and Arthur C. Clark’s collaboration on the film and novel 2001: A Space Odyssey (both adapted from a short story).

The aim of the course is twofold: to give a sketch of the history of English-language autobiographical writing, and to encourage students to work on their own autobiographical projects. To this end, the weekly meetings will be divided into two parts: in the first part, I’ll be allocating three extracts from existing autobiographies for discussion (some relatively ancient, some modern), and in the second part we'll discuss extracts from the on-going work of two class members. In other words, applicants to the course should expect to read and comment on several pieces of existing work each week, as well as undertaking a semester-long autobiographical project of their own devising.

Students will employ research, explore personal experience, and develop their own voice, style, and storytelling craft. Students will interrogate the self and the self in the world, shaping the “I” on the page. The course builds on material covered in Introduction to Fiction & Poetry and/or Introduction to Fiction & Nonfiction and will prepare students for advanced study. This readings-based course is also writing-intensive, including in-class exercises, brief creative posts, essay drafts, revisions, and workshop. Readings/models for the course include authors Seneca, Sei Shonagon, Michel de Montaigne, James Baldwin, Melissa Febos, Vivian Gornick, Audre Lorde, Toni Morrison, JoAnn Beard, Zadie Smith, Jia Tolentino, Mark Twain, and more.

Authors may include Tolstoy, Kafka, Chekhov, Melville, Larsen, Juan Rulfo, James Welch, Gwendolyn Brooks, Muriel Spark, Philip Roth, Shirley Jackson, Tao Lin, and César Aira.

Students will write and workshop two short stories and one work of flash fiction. In addition, students will read and write a 2-3 page critical paper on one story collection of their own choice, selected from a list of recently published options. The syllabus will include some selections by the instructor, along with one story from each book chosen by a student in the course, creating a collaborative brief survey of contemporary fiction. In reading discussions and workshop, we'll consider the intentions of the writer and think about how a story is shaped by both the writer's particular voice and interests and by the cultural moment in which the writer is working.

By making an in-depth study of several poets' work, students will gain a fuller understanding of what it means to arrive at a distinct poetic style and to develop that style over from one book to the next. Students will write poems throughout the semester and eventually submit a portfolio of revised work, accompanied by an artist statement.
Students who have completed the fall class "Teaching Creative Writing in Baltimore Schools" are eligible for this class in the spring semester. As Teaching Fellows, students continue to work alongside writing teachers from the non-profit organization Writers in Baltimore Schools (WBS) to plan and lead creative writing workshops in local public elementary and middle schools. Class discussions will move into deeper explorations of topics like student-centered pedagogy, community building, and educational equity. Teaching Fellows will have opportunities for greater leadership at their worksites and will create resources for benefit of their students and future generations of Teaching Fellows.

Writing the Unreal
Tsuno, Nicole Yoshiko
Summer 2024
"We left what we felt at what we saw,” the poet Wallace Stevens once wrote, suggesting writing involves a direct response to our experiences of reality. In this class, we’ll look exclusively at writing which takes on what hasn’t been seen, and hasn’t been felt. Through reading works of science fiction, magical realism, gothic literature, and speculative fiction, students will investigate how the unreal can still speak to our experiences and perceptions of the real. Additionally, students will get the chance to craft their own fantastical worlds through regular writing assignments. Tales of time travelers, haunted houses, unreal languages, and reimagined cities will be covered. Readings will include selections from Paul Beatty, Octavia Butler, Italo Calvino, Ursula K. Le Guin, Yoko Ogawa, and Mary Shelley.
