Writing Science Fiction

Assignments

Every student will write two pieces of fiction. These may be short stories or chapters in a longer work. If a student chooses to write long fiction, a short summary of the rest of the story should be appended to the final revised version of the second piece. Each major piece will be submitted to workshop and rewritten.

These MIT students have agreed to share their writing as examples of student work.
