You’ve got a great story, but do you have great sentences?

What kind of sentence captures anxiety? Thought? A reminiscent narrator? A feeling of euphoria? Exhaustion? The style of the sentence–the diction, imagery, syntax, rhythm, and sound–isn't frivolous decoration, but content. Stylish sentences have their own powerful energy that mesmerizes and even rearranges a reader’s world. By the end of this class, you will have mastered the art of writing sentences that do more than move the story along.

Nina Schuyler—award-winning author and professor of creative writing at the University of San Francisco—will be sharing the mechanics of their magic.

This will be a virtual meeting.
