2010 Writing Classes with Waverly Fitzgerald

Shapes of Stories
In this craft-oriented workshop, we’ll explore common story structures—the traditional narrative arc, the braid, the collage, the faucet or frame, the circle and alternative story structures—that appear in both fiction and nonfiction. We’ll read examples, then write our own essays, articles and short stories. You can apply these structures to one topic and see how it changes or write a new story every week. The goal is to come away with practical experience of how different story structures shape your stories and spark your imagination. Students in the last class produced stories that were published and won prizes.
