Inside OLLI

Each issue will spotlight one OLLI at SF State class.

Playing the Trickster

The Trickster is a well known character in myths from many cultures. This past summer, 16 OLLI at SF State members attended a creative writing course entitled Playing the Trickster - An Approach to the Practice of Creative Writing.  We offer in this section an interview with the course instructor, Sarah Broderick, and some works the OLLI members wrote for the course.
