The line between flash fiction and prose poetry has always walked a blurred line. Course will be an intensive theoretical and practical workshop focusing on structural conventions and systemic rationale for boundaries between Flash Fiction and Prose Poetry. Class will also look in depth at short form structure, and have the opportunity to practice craft in completing prompts. Theoretical texts will help cement real world implications of a short form practice. Creative readings for craft study will include texts by authors such as Kathy Fish, Venita Blackburn, Lydia Davis, Sherrie Flick, Amy Hempel, Amber Sparks, Sandra Cisneros, Maria Romasco Moore, Charles Baudelaire, Gertrude Stein, Claudia Rankin and Ursula K.
Legion, Theoretical texts will include pieces by Lorde, Butler, Foucault, Derrida and others. Assignments will include creative writing prompts, regular written research journals of 2+ pages each, and a final paper of 10+ pages
