The five-credit class will meet 12:30-1:30 p.m., Tuesday and Thursdays, as well as online, January 5 through March 20. Credits earned may count toward a two-year transfer degree at the college or the class may be taken as an elective.

Participate in our supportive writing community!

At Edmonds Community College, emerging writers enjoy opportunities each quarter to interact with published authors and to polish and share their own poetry, fiction, and nonfiction. In addition to the literary journal and regularly offered English classes in creative writing and literature, the college provides a number of free short writing workshops and author events open to the community. Since 2002, the college’s Convergence Writers Series has hosted more than 30 free literary readings, most recently featuring Washington State Poet Laureate Samuel Green.
