Class Description

Description

Full Course Title: Travel Writing: How to Set Yourself Apart from the Crowd

Learn the foundations of travel writing and get a chance to workshop your own stories in this guided class.

"I never travel without my diary. One should always keep something sensational to read in the train."

—Oscar Wilde

Travel writing is more than just traveling. It is imbuing your reader with the nuances and textures of your experiences in a unique and riveting piece of literature, whether a blog, essay, article, or novel.

In this class, we will learn about the 14 types of travel writing every aspiring writer should know and highlight examples from the best contemporary travel writers: Paul Theroux, Susan Orlean, Bill Bryson, and Pico Iyer. We will discuss acclaimed travel giants in literature: Graham Greene, V.S. Naipaul, and Nathaniel Hawthorne, to name a few.

Come prepared to share your travel articles, essays, or journals for class discussion. In this constructive and supportive environment, we will share our stories to mold them into refined pieces of writing for this highly competitive market.
