BFL
Thanks for posting this. I might not take this course, but in investigating it I ran across a course I WILL take in June: How Writers Write. Just signed up for it.
I had never heard of The Writing University or International Writing Program and had no idea such a resource existed.
As an aspiring novelist, your post may have changed my life. Thanks.

Massive Online Learning (MOL) is what will drive the colleges to either change or die. If you can sit at home and take a lecture from one of the top instructors in a field, wont the other colleges not need their instructor?
Oh, Let's concentrate on self for a WHOLE SEMESTER. And, for months, gaze at our navels. Perhaps this will enable us to make money after we graduate?
No... Awe Shucks
Perhaps it will make us better people and get us to love our neighbors and community more. As we examine how to be more self centered that will make us more caring people?
Uh.... No, just more selfish and self centered
Perhaps it will raise global consciousness and global self-awareness. Global self-centered authoritianists making decisions based on their own selfishness (IE Socialist/Communist)?
Oh Yeah. I get it now; subtle Anti-American leftism. Probably paid with our tax dollars.
Whittaker Walt?
Seriously, some of Whitman's shorter poems are remarkably good. But "Song of Myself" is insufferable.
