Summer 2009 Catalog

Summer quarter at Hugo House—trust us, this is not your mother’s summer school. In July we are offering one-day, four-week and one-week intensive classes in just about everything under the literary sun. David Wagoner will be doing his annual summer poetry reading class—this time focusing on the Scribner’s anthology “Best American Poetry 2009” (which David edited). Alice Acheson, Diane Mapes and Joni Sensel will all be facilitating one-day classes that look at different aspects of getting published, from print-on-demand to pitching story ideas to writing the perfect query letter. And of course there are plenty of great poetry and prose classes to help you hone your craft from Paul Nelson, Rebecca Agiewich, Vincent Kovar and other favorite teachers.

Member registration begins Tuesday, May 19 at noon.

General registration begins Tuesday, May 26 at noon.
