Description:

A foggy early morning at Lake Bled, Slovenia, with a rowboat at the dock in the foreground and Bled Island's Church of the Mother of God on the Lake in the background.Fantasy is the oldest form of storytelling. From the creation stories of the Dakota to the Epic of Gilgamesh to The Odyssey to Beowulf, we have always found comfort in tales of brave heroes and hideous beasts, of new worlds and ancient magics, of powerful rulers and epic dangers.

In this class, we will read, write and maybe even publish fantasy. We'll take a look at the most powerful tropes (story types) in fantasy writing and read masters of fantasy like Alice Bradley Sheldon, Neil Gaiman, and Susanna Clarke. We'll talk about keeping dragons, casting spells, wielding swords, defeating tyrant kings, encountering the fae, contending with demons, avoiding imps, and defeating wizards. We'll write long and short fiction, as preferred by the individual student.

Students will write in each class period and have writing homework. In class, we will share our work. We will encourage positive, constructive critique that leads the writer to write more.

Students should bring paper and pencil or a laptop or tablet to class each week.

Students should plan to spend about 30 to 60 minutes weekly on writing at home.
