 * [[image:KrisWriting.gif width="79" height="109"]] || In “A Writer’s Workshop,” students will participate in an online writing group with the goal of becoming a better writer. The focus is on creative forms, such as poetry and short fiction, but other forms of writing are also welcome. Students will complete writing exercises, keep a writer’s log, post original writing for the group to workshop, and participate actively in workshopping the writing of other students. In addition, students will learn about wiki technology through collaborative writing exercises and they will design a writing exercise to be used in this course in the future. The final project will consist of a portfolio of original work produced during the course. Both the portfolio and the writing exercise will be formally peer reviewed. ||

The intent of this course is to create a safe and supportive environment for writers of all levels to work on their craft. Creating that safe environment requires an attitude of compassion and respect from everybody involved. If you want to become a better writer and you are willing to bring compassion and respect to your interactions with other students, then this is a good course for you.
