SUMMARY:Writing Historical Fiction
DESCRIPTION:This is a three-day course focused on generating—rather than simply workshopping—historical fiction. Using writing prompts and exercises\, assignments\, readings\, and self-directed research\, participants will leave the course with the seeds for larger writing projects. We’ll discuss the purpose of and place for historical fiction today\, and how stories can transcend time altogether. \nThe class meet from 1-3pm on Saturday and Sunday\, July 12 and 13\, and from 9-11am on Monday\, July 14. \n$225 – Email SPL to register. We will keep a short waitlist in case of any cancellations. \nAbout the Instructor\nBen Shattuck’s most recent book\, The History of Sound (Viking\, 2024)\, was the winner of the Story Prize Spotlight Award and nominated for the 2024 PEN/Faulkner Award for Fiction and the Andrew Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Fiction.

He is a graduate of the Iowa Writers’ Workshop and winner of the PEN Short Story Prize for Emerging Writers and a Pushcart Prize.
