A Tale of Three Cities: NYU’s Summer Creative Writing Programs

Staff Writer

  • Aspiring writers can spend a month honing their craft in Paris, Florence, or New York City.
  • These summer programs are open to current NYU undergrads as well as visiting students.
  • Writers immerse themselves in their cities and learn from leading literary and creative minds.

Writers draw inspiration from their own experiences, and for many, global cities become their muse. At NYU, aspiring poets, fiction writers, and creative nonfiction writers can enroll in a monthlong immersive summer program through the College of Arts and Science . Participants choose between Paris, Florence, and New York City, and then hone their creative writing skills against the backdrop of an iconic city. Below, three aspiring wordsmiths share their experiences living a writer’s life.

Enjoy a Moveable Feast in Paris

NYU English and American Literature major Isean Bhalla chose to study in Paris because a friend completed the program and loved it. Their endorsement? “‘It was the greatest month of my life,’ word for word,” Isean recalls. “Plus, one does not say no to Paris. Ever.” Reflecting back, Isean credits growing as a creative writer to the program’s high-quality faculty and “excellent” nightly readings from “world-class writers.” “It gave me a greater understanding of my own voice as well as things I want to write about in the future,” Isean affirms.

Most importantly, however, Writers in Paris connected Isean to an inspiring community that was rich in writing talent and friendship. “The program put me in constant contact with other writers who were better than I was. They pushed me in ways I couldn’t. Being around writers 24/7 doesn’t sound like it’s that important, but I found it more stimulating for my writing than anything else. That’s all anyone ever talked about or thought about. So we’d feed off each other and get better.” And, of course, being in Paris didn’t hurt. Isean says, “Paris is a muse; Paris has always been a muse; and I suspect Paris will always be a muse.”

Get a Room with a View in Florence

Katherine Ertman always considered writing a hobby, but after attending Writers in Florence , she realized it could be a career. The NYU Vocal Performance major is training to be an opera singer, but in Florence, she found that “writing my own stories instead of performing stories written by others was a refreshing experience.” In fact, Katherine spent the past summer completing a Creative Writing minor by enrolling in both Writers in Florence and Writers in Paris. “It seemed like an amazing opportunity to complete all 16 credits while exploring two inspiring European cities,” she explains.

In Florence Katherine drew inspiration from a day trip to Castello di Fosdinovo, a Tuscan medieval castle. In Paris she attended readings by renowned authors outside the iconic Shakespeare and Company bookstore. “The locations really influenced me, and I ended up writing a few stories set in both locations,” Katherine says. In the end, she urges anyone interested to enroll, even if they’ve never shared their creative writing with others. “Just try it!” she exclaims. “Writing was a hobby for me, and I went in without any prior workshop experience. Also, I was intimidated because I’m not an English major. However, my fears were unfounded because the faculty and students alike were so supportive. It’s an experience I wouldn’t trade for the world.”

A Writer Grows in New York City

Esmé Warmuth grew up close to New York City, admiring the city from afar but never spending much time there. So when the English major learned that she could join NYU’s Writers in New York program as a visiting student , she jumped at the chance. “I’ve been a longtime admirer of NYU’s creative writing faculty,” she adds. Living in Greenwich Village, Esmé connected with published authors, literary agents, and magazine editors, gaining valuable professional experience. She particularly enjoyed a panel with program alumni. “It was helpful to hear from authors who had started where we were and wound up with book deals, jobs teaching creative writing, and overall successful careers,” she explains.

During her month in New York City, Esmé sharpened her skills as a writer and gained confidence in her abilities. “Receiving, giving, and listening to advice in class helped me grow my craft and gave me the opportunity to share my writing with a receptive and positive audience,” she says. All in all, the experience was better than she could have imagined. “The Writers in New York program was like nothing I ever experienced before,” she concludes. “Being among students my age who were just as passionate about books and writing as I am was wonderful. Plus, everyone came in with a great attitude and a willingness to learn. I’m very grateful.”

Program of Study (CAS Bulletin)

Creative writing (2022 - 2024).

The minor in creative writing offers undergraduates the opportunity to sharpen their skills while exploring the full range of literary genres, including poetry, fiction, and creative nonfiction. All students must complete 16 points of coursework in creative writing in order to fulfill the requirements of the minor.

The introductory workshop Creative Writing: Introduction to Prose and Poetry (CRWRI-UA 815, 4 points) or the study away course Creative Writing (CRWRI-UA 9815, 4 points) is generally the required foundational course, to be followed by 12 additional points from the program's CRWRI-UA course offerings.

However, students who begin their minor by taking one of the program's 8-point summer intensives—Writers in New York (CRWRI-UA 818, 819, or 835), Writers in Paris (CRWRI-UA 9818 or 9819), or Writers in Florence (CRWRI-UA 9828 or 9829)—are not required to take the introductory workshop (CRWRI-UA 815, CRWRI-UA 9815, or equivalent). Following completion of one of these 8-point intensives, students may take advanced coursework in the same genre as their summer intensive and/or move directly into an intermediate workshop in an alternative genre. Students may also repeat an 8-credit summer intensive to complete the 16-credit minor. Intermediate and advanced workshops may be taken three times for credit.

The creative writing minor must be completed with a minimum grade point average of 2.0 (C). No credit toward the minor is granted for grades of C- or lower, although such grades will be computed into the grade point average of the minor, as well as into the overall grade point average. No course to be counted toward the minor may be taken on a Pass/Fail basis.

To declare the minor : Students in the College of Arts and Science may declare a creative writing minor by completing the minor declaration form on the program's website. Students in other NYU schools may declare their minors on Albert or as directed by their home schools. The program recommends that all creative writing minors contact the undergraduate programs manager in the semester prior to graduation to verify that their minor declaration is on record and that they have fulfilled (or have enrolled in) all of the appropriate courses for the minor.

Policy on Course Substitutions

Students may petition to apply a maximum of one outside course toward the minor, either as the introductory prerequisite (equivalent to CRWRI-UA 815 or 9815) or as an elective. An outside course is any NYU creative writing course without a CRWRI-UA rubric. To petition to substitute an outside course, students must complete the course substitution petition form (available on the program's website) and provide the course syllabus (as described on the petition form). The undergraduate programs manager will review the submitted syllabus to verify course level and determine substitution eligibility. Students must petition for course substitution prior to registration.

If the program pre-approves a non-NYU course for substitution, it can only be counted toward the minor if 1. the Office of the Associate Dean for Students in CAS has also approved the course credit for transfer, and 2. the student receives a grade of C or better.

Students wishing to begin the creative writing minor while studying away at an NYU site should register for Creative Writing (CRWRI-UA 9815) or, if studying away in the summer, for one of the 8-point intensives offered in Paris and Florence (CRWRI-UA 9818, 9819, 9828, or 9829). These courses are not considered outside courses and will automatically be counted toward the creative writing minor. All other creative writing courses taken away require a petition for substitution and are subject to approval by the program.

CREATIVE WRITING

Mr. Quigley

creative writing nyu summer

In his essay “On Reading ‘The Rocket Man,’” Michael Chabon writes, “The most important short story in my life as a writer is Ray Bradbury’s “The Rocket Man.”  I read it for the first time when I was ten.  I was making my way, with pleasure, through a collection of Bradbury’s stories called R Is for Rocket .  I had been an avid reader for about five years, and at first the pleasure I felt was the familiar pleasure I derived from the flights of an author’s fancy, and from the anticipation and surprise of plot.  Then I came to “The Rocket Man.”  It’s the narrative of the young son of a rocket pilot whose father is to him at once an ordinary, ordinarily absent father, puttering around the house on his days off, and a terrible, mysterious demigod whose kingdom is the stars.  The danger of the father’s profession, the imminence and immanence of death, lie upon the family like the dust of stars that the narrator lovingly collects from his father’s flightsuit every time the Rocket Man comes home.  During one of the father’s leaves, the family travels to Mexico by car.  One evening they stop along a rural road to rest, and in the last light of the day the son notices bright butterflies, dozens of them, trapped and dying in the grille of the car.

“I think it was when I got to the butterflies—in that brief, beautiful image comprising life, death and technology—that the hair on the back of my neck began to stand on end. All at once, the pleasure I took in reading was altered irrevocably.  Before now I had never noticed, somehow, that stories were made not of ideas or exciting twists of plot but of language.  And not merely of pretty words and neat turns of phrase, but of systems of imagery, strategies of metaphor.  “The Rocket Man” unfolds to its melancholy conclusion in a series of haunting images of light and darkness, of machinery and biology interlocked, of splendor and fragility.  The sense of foreboding is powerful; the imagery becomes a kind of plot of its own, a shadow plot.  The end, when it comes, is at once an awful surprise, and inevitable as any Rocket Man, or those who mourn him, could expect.

“I have never since looked quite the same way at fathers, butterflies, science fiction, language, short stories, or the sun.”

Please choose ten of the following twenty-one short stories to print, read, annotate--and study  ( you will teach the class one of these ten stories with two peers during the first full week of school). While reading, please write five (one paragraph each) character descriptions and five (one paragraph each) setting descriptions   ( feel free to experiment--and/or imitate the style/voice/sentence structure of authors from the summer reading list you admire) .  A character you create might (eventually) fit into one of your settings--or not (something else for us to try...).  As you read, please mark any passages where you feel the writer achieves the kind of language Chabon stumbled upon when reading Bradbury’s “The Rocket Man,” passages constructed “not merely of pretty words and neat turns of phrase, but of systems of imagery, strategies of metaphor,” places where you find “haunting images of light and darkness, of machinery and biology interlocked, of splendor and fragility,” the kinds of places you like to revisit and get lost in for a while as a reader—sentences, scenes, and paragraphs that make your chest ache and inspire you to write—places, to paraphrase Chabon, where the hair on the back of your neck begins to stand on end .  When you find one of those spots, read it out loud and listen to it, roll the words around, note how they feel coming out of your mouth.  Then think about why the writer used certain words and phrases, why the sentences are laid out as they are, how the paragraphs flow, how the rhythms are engineered.  That is, of course, what the focus of our readings will be throughout the course.

Mr. McCulloch and Mr. Q.

Cool Course—Design and Development: Couture/Culture

A mid-19th century advertisement. Shankland's American fashions, ca. 1849. [Philadelphia: John R. Shankland]. Retrieved from the Library of Congress.

For many, the fashion world is synonymous with venerable spectacles such as Fashion Week, the Met Gala, and the pages of Vogue . But in recent years, journalists and cultural commentators have broadened conversations about the industry to include questions about  sustainability , labor , and gender inequality .

For more than a decade, an undergraduate Global Liberal Studies and College of Arts and Science course, “Couture/Culture: Fashion and Globalization,” has taken that kind of multi-faceted approach to examine larger issues through fashion.

The class, taught by Liberal Studies Clinical Professor  Jessamyn Hatcher  and Arts & Science Professor  Thuy Linh Tu , considers the industry’s past and present in order to better understand broader commercial, cultural, and political processes.

These include the role of department stores in racial integration and how social media users work to spot knockoff fashion and design theft—topics that are explored in the syllabus through works such as  Working Girls: Sex, Taste, and Reform in the Garment Trades, 1880-1919  and  Threads: Gender, Labor, and Power in the Global Apparel Industry , guest speakers from the design industry, and visits to local exhibitions.

“Using fashion as a lens to examine histories of capitalism and colonialism encourages students to recognize how these have shaped clothing production, consumption, waste, and reuse in the present,” Tu says. “This helps students not only broaden their understanding of the industry, but arms them with ways to conceive of alternatives to our existing social and economic systems.”

The semester culminates with a group project in which students, working in teams, identify a social problem illuminated in a specific component of the fashion system by tracing the historical roots of this problem and then developing a future-focused remedy.

For another assignment, a “textile revival workshop,” students “revive” each other’s garments. After receiving an article of clothing or similar item from a classmate, each student performs a “ fashion hack ” to transform the piece, guided by the owner’s recounting of its history and why the owner would like it revived. Should it serve a new purpose? Or be made more durable to preserve its sentimental value?

“We dedicate a great deal of time in this class discussing the global garment industry and the labor it takes to produce the clothes we wear,” Hatcher explains. “But students might not have ever worked on a garment themselves—or know the difference between a knit and a woven fabric. It becomes important when, for instance, we are trying to puncture the myth that sewing is ‘unskilled labor’ or that garment workers are not ‘creative’ for students to see just how much skill, creativity, and time it takes to perform even simple transformations.”

Among this spring’s revivals were a white tank top that was renovated using special leather paints (which bond more effectively to fabrics than do acrylic paints) to add a hand-painted lily in the middle (pictured above at right) and an Ariana Grande “Thank U, Next” sweatshirt altered in ways that randomized the letters, thereby turning concert swag into conceptual art (pictured below).

“Giving students the chance to experiment with creative methods to extend, support, or imagine strategies to positively impact the social and environmental costs of fashion production, distribution, consumption, use, and disposal, even if in small but meaningful ways, is vital to the learning process,” Hatcher says. “We want the students to explore the possibilities, but also the limitations, of projects like the textile revival workshop to enact change.”
