The creative writing workshop has existed since the early part of
the 20th century, but does it adequately serve the students who
come to it today? While the workshop is often thought of as a form
of student-centered pedagogy, it turns out that workshop
conversations serve to marginalize a range of aesthetic
orientations and the cultural histories to which they belong. Given
the shifting demographics of higher education, it is time to
re-evaluate the creative writing curriculum and move literary
writing pedagogy toward a more inclusive, equitable model. Toward
an Inclusive Creative Writing makes the argument that creative
writing stands upon problematic assumptions about what counts as
valid artistic production, and these implicit beliefs result in
exclusionary pedagogical practices. To counter this tendency of
creative writing, this book proposes a revised curriculum that
rests upon 12 threshold concepts that can serve to transform the
teaching of literary writing craft. The book also has a companion
website www.criticalcreativewriting.org offering supplemental
materials such as lesson plans and course materials.
