ENGL 567 Writing Literary Journalism

In this course, students will examine the field of literary journalism, in which writers weave elements of fiction such as scene, dialogue, and voice into traditional reporting to create an immersive and well-researched experience for the reader. They will read representative examples of the genre and learn to identify and analyze commonly practiced characteristics of literary journalism. Students will engage in writing examples of literary journalism and then participate in workshops to collaborate and improve drafts.
