Durham County Library is hosting a 6-week college-level course on writing the novel, taught by Redbud Writing Project. In-person instruction will take place on Wednesday evenings for 6 weeks, though there will be additional coursework to be completed on your own time (readings and writing exercises). Space is strictly limited, so those interested will need to apply for a spot.

Applications should include a one-page fiction writing sample (excerpts from previously written stories are fine) as well as acknowledgement that you are able to attend all 6 meetings and complete additional coursework as assigned by the instructor. If you have scheduling conflicts, please leave spots open for others who are interested.  Applications will be accepted between Jan. 15 - Feb. 14, 2025. Students will receive notification of their acceptance by end of day, Feb. 18.

Please send submissions (with writing sample attached) via email to plocey@dconc.gov, with the subject heading "Novel Writing Course Application."

This course offereing is made possible by a generous grant from the Friends of the Durham Library.
