Instructor: Olivia Dunn
Level: Intermediate
For better or for worse, our culture is one with a short attention span. In this class, we will look at the shortest forms of writing, the micro-essay, flash fiction, or prose poetry. Writing flash can be a way to condense our experiences and ideas down to their most explicit core or their most delightful truth. We can only become better writers as we zoom in, learning to pay attention to each syllable and breath in our writing. By the end of the course, you’ll have a series of flashes ready to send out for publication.
This message is for Olivia Dunn. I am an art teacher at Tech Valley High School in Albany and we are seeking flash fiction writers to volunteer and visit the classroom (one time) to discuss their career and their craft. The project will begin in late February. We are a project based learning school and the only regional high school in the capital region.
Thank you! I will pass it on to Olivia Dunn.
