A Collective Online Writing Project
During each week of Winter Quarter, the Program in Creative Writing will circulate prompts inspired by Giovanni Boccaccio’s The Decameron, the famous collection of 100 tales told by a group of young Florentines to pass the time as they shelter in place outside the city which is being ravaged by the plague. Unlike the deserted villa sheltering ten Florentines in the original text, the home for our collective storytelling quarantine will be virtual and the creative responses will be submitted online.
