“There is always room for a story that can transport people to another place.” - J.K. Rowling

“As I see it, a successful story of any kind should be almost like hypnosis: you fascinate the reader with your first sentence, draw them further with your second sentence, and have them in a mild trance by the third.” - Alan Moore

Following storytelling examples as penned by world-renowned writer Neil Gaiman, this course will explore the process of giving your imagination wings, of developing a story-line, building new worlds, and over the course of the year, go from your first draft to a final published book! Students will also learn how to flesh out characters and conquer writer’s block.
