Course objectives
The two semesters long optional seminar (around 14+14 lessons) is aimed at expanding the linguistic and literary abilities for creating both journalist, professional and (quasi)literary texts and elaborate the individual style of the author. The participants will attempt different writing techniques supporting imagination and a-linear thinking, stimulation techniques, techniques eliminating blocks, collective authorship and problem sollutions.
