Summary

Summer can be a tough time to write, with the call of the wild beckoning us outdoors to play. But this course, taught by Kennedy Center Award-winning playwright Lucy Wang, will help you to stay motivated and keep up your writing!

Every week, there will be an in-class writing assignment, often inspired by real-world submission opportunities. Afterwards, students will get the chance to share what they’ve written, to revise it and to submit it to reap the added benefit of public recognition. While rewards vary with each opportunity -- publication, reading, production or a cash prize -- the overall goal remains the same: to improve craft, create new work, increase visibility, and have fun.

Come explore and experiment with your voice across genres in a safe, supportive environment – and perhaps even go on to win public recognition and prizes afterwards!
