You would like to share your ideas, experience and words through magazines and online articles. You would love to see your name in print. Or you would like to sharpen your craft? This course covers the basics of non-fiction feature writing, serving as a foundation for your magazine and online stories. Each week, we will cover a basic aspect of feature writing:  ideas, structure, reporting, writing, voice and completion. These are the cause and effect – or karma – of a story. You will also write stories, which we will read and give feedback in class.
