What You’ll Learn: Poetry, narrative structure, and creative writing techniques.
Who Should Join: Writers, music enthusiasts, and creatives of all levels.

There will be no exams or quizzes. Students will have discussion boards before each class and write short pieces of writing practice by the end of each class. This is why class is mandatory for every meeting. The students have a last creative piece which will be a short story that they have been developing throughout the semester or an original piece inspired by their favorite song(s).

The class has 15 open seats, so first come, first served since I won't be given more access codes after that's been filled. There are no applications, lottery, or interviews. Come to the first class meeting to get an access/permission code. Let me know if you are having any issues with this :)
