In this course we will work with poems, short stories, or novel excerpts written by students, who must submit their texts to be discussed in class. We will try to guide these discussions to a thorough review of the expressive and literary quality of each text, but without losing sight of the possibility of glimpsing a larger project. The texts should not exceed two pages and each participant will be responsible for bringing copies for other students in the class and the teacher. Discussions will aim to create a final version of the original to achieve the highest possible quality, but also, in cases of participants who so desire, we will try to open the road so they can address and plan, on their own, a future book project.
