This course aims to discipline the student’s creative writing output by meeting deadlines with a significant amount of new and revised creative work in the student’s chosen genre.  Students are exposed to detailed editorial critique of their work and are expected to revise writing through as many drafts as necessary to achieve as close to a final draft as possible.  The course also encourages students to articulate, through their creative work, a vision of themselves as a creative writer, and to focus the Asian aspect of their work with a unique perspective and voice.
