Science Fiction and Fantasy Writing Basics

Are you looking to write Science Fiction or Fantasy stories but aren't sure where to start? Are you a fan of a space opera? Or a vision of a dystopian future, or do you have an idea? What about a sword-and-sorcery epic? Or a gritty tale about modern magic? This class is for you!

Cody D. Campbell has been writing these genres for more than fifteen years. He holds an English degree from Oregon State University. He teaches creative writing at Linn Benton Community College, where he created this curriculum.

This class will teach you about:

• Narrative voice
• Character development
• Plot
• Outlining
• Setting
• Magic Systems
• Theme

You will be able to confidently put pen to paper by learning the skills and information that you need. In no time, you'll be creating worlds of forbidden magic or technological adventure.

Even if fiction is not something you have ever written, this class will help you to become the author that you always wanted to be.
