01. Introduction
Meet your new instructor: Joyce Carol Oates, the National Book Award-winning author of 58 novels and thousands of short stories. Joyce welcomes you and discusses the enduring importance of short fiction.
02. Principles of Writing Short Fiction
You want to write. When and how do you get it done? Joyce explains how to draft, revise, and share your work with others. She also touches on rejection and how to protect your time for writing.
03. Journals: Observing the World
Journaling is a tried-and-true method for self-expression and discovering your voice. For illustration, Joyce reads from one of Virginia Woolf's diary entries.
04. Ideas: Exploring Taboo and Darkness
Joyce discusses how delving into the darker elements of your personality and past can provide compelling, heartfelt fodder for fiction-as well as a means to finding a unique audience.
05. Structure and Form
Some of Joyce's experimental approaches to structure include considering the shape of a story on its first page and writing a one-sided dialogue. She reads from her story "Heat."
06. Ideas: Writing the Familiar
Your past and your family can be a rich trove of story material. Joyce walks you through examining childhood influences, interviewing family, and remembering physical places that have left a lasting impression on you.
07. Form Study: Miniature Narrative
Joyce analyzes very brief narratives-ones with no more than a few pages-for the language and structure they require. As an example, she reads from the William Carlos Williams story "The Use of Force."
08. Form Study: Short Monologue
Writing a monologue can be a useful stepping-stone to crafting a novel, as well as a good exercise in exploring the perspectives of characters unlike yourself. Joyce's monologue story "Lethal" serves as an illustration.
09. Story Study: "Where Are You Going, Where Have You Been?"
Joyce reveals what inspired-and how she wrote-her most well-known and reprinted story, including how she chose the main character's perspective and how adjusting perspective can be helpful for your own story.
10. Reading and Studying Writing
How do you read with the intention of finding new ideas and learning from writers you admire? Joyce leads a discussion on reading as a writer.
11. The Writer's Workshop: "Indian Camp"
Joyce and two of her students-Lindsey Skillen and Corey Arnold-read from Ernest Hemingway's story "Indian Camp." They review the work as they would in one of Joyce's collegiate or graduate classes.
12. Revision Workshop: "Labor Day"
Joyce holds a workshop of her student Lindsey's story "Labor Day," which can be downloaded in advance of the lesson.
13. Revision Workshop: "Near Death"
This workshop focuses on Corey's short story "Near Death," which can also be downloaded in advance.
14. Closing
Joyce shares her parting words, advising how to select a place to write that makes you feel inspired and how to continue finding joy in the writing process.
