4-Week: Call Me Yahtzee!—Using Games to Elevate Your Writing Process

Toss out our Scrabble tiles and forget your Wordle streak. For this class, we’re taking the combination of games and words to much more interesting levels of craft. But how and why would a game ever possibly be helpful to your writing? Because you must first begin to think of your writing as its own kind of game. We’ll read writers who employ games in their texts. And we’ll experiment with a variety of ways to combine gaming principles with writings techniques. Together, we’ll bring the essential concept of play back into our work. Come ready to roll dice, take chances, and learn how to make all your words into winners.
