In this Capstone course for the English Major program, students will have an opportunity to hear invited speakers, for example Indigenous and non-Indigenous creative non-fiction writers. Students will develop practical skills in editing and publishing, with a focus on publishing peer authors' work, both academic and creative. They will gain hands-on experience editing and communicating with authors who have submitted their work to the Proceedings of the TRU Undergraduate Research and Innovation Conference, and they will also compose, revise, and edit their own creative non-fiction piece, as well as critique and copy-edit their peers' creative non-fiction. Students will learn about the publication process by working together to produce an online student creative writing publication. The course will be useful for literature students, creative writing students, and anyone else contemplating a career in publishing or teaching.
Prerequisite: 6 credits of first-year English (with the exception of ENGL 1150) or equivalent AND completion of 45 credits OR permission of instructor or department Chair.
