Dungeons & Dragons & Writing with Evan Fleischer (via Zoom)
September 16, 2022 @ 6:00 pm - 8:30 pm
$370.00
Looking for an out-of-the-box way to expand your characters and character-building skills? Dungeons & Dragons is a collective storytelling game played amongst friends with dice telling the players what they can and can’t do. This 6week class series aims to take the structure of Dungeons & Dragons and the act of playing the game itself to enable students to conduct a living, ever-deepening study of character and storytelling structures as characters encounter a collective story in real time. Each student will be responsible for producing 10-20 pages of material over the course of six weeks. Each student will be provided with supplementary videos and text to further the study of character.
This course will take place on six consecutive Fridays beginning on September 16 via Zoom. The Zoom link will be shared at the time of registration and again the day before the series begins. Please write to [email protected] with any questions.
No prior experience necessary. All are welcome.
Evan Fleischer is a writer, editor, and teacher. He has written for The New Yorker, The New York Times, and numerous other publications. He is currently developing a series of classes for the Virginia Adult Learning Resource Center based on Dungeons & Dragons.
