This workshop was one of my favorite courses. It is the perfect environment for a new writer to be exposed to brilliant works of writing (short stories, in particular) and to develop their own artistic voice based on these inspirations. The workshops were especially eye-opening in being able to hear how other people read and interpret your writing, and also in being able to discuss the work of others in ways that can allow you to improve your own pieces. This course reignited my love for creative writing.
I LOVED this course. I think Molly's craft talks made me a better writer, and the wide cross-genre selection of books we read allowed me to better understand the diversity of ways in which different craft elements could be utilized to create stories.
The format for the workshops was very organized and I appreciated how everyone had an opportunity to contribute thoughts in every class. It felt very communal. Molly also gave wonderful line edits and a critique letter that was well thought out, helpful and encouraging! On a whole I feel very encouraged as a writer after finishing up this course.
Molly was also kind and accepting. She did a good job curating a nice class environment which is hard to do on Zoom!
