Outline (in English)

We will learn how to write a short story in this creative writing course. I am sure that everybody hopes to write a “masterpiece.” However, we need “input” before “output.” In the spring semester, we will read short stories by contemporary writers. To read excellent stories will inspire our creativity. Let’s read as many stories as possible, until you cannot wait to start writing something yourself, until water flows over the rim of a glass. In other fields such as painting, music, sports, and dance, they would also start with admiration and imitation. In every class, I will explain some practical writing tips; theme, plot, structure, beginning, character, setting, scene, showing/telling, conversation, style, point of view, and elaboration.
Students will edit and make a small literary magazine consisted of their own short stories during the summer break and we will use it as a textbook in the fall semester.
