課節名稱及概要：

第一節 　 甚麼事都沒發生— —小說的可能性

學習重點：小說有甚麼基本元素？這些「元素」是否必需？本節透過與同學們閱讀不同風格的小說作為引入，同時談談「轉折」與「伏線」的鋪墊。

第二節    誰在敲門— —小說的人物與經營

學習重點：人物可以如何捕捉、如何放置？兩個作映襯、三個為對照，抑或群角書寫？如何寫出自然的對話？本節透過閱讀以不同人物數量或設計動機的小說，讓同學認識如何構建人物。

第三節    今天天氣晴— —小說的氣氛及細節

學習重點：在情節及人物以外，小說的氣氛及場景可以怎樣寫？同一個空間，如何賦予不同情感或導向的描述？本節與同學討論有關作品，同時希望讓同學試寫，看看如何渲染小說的氣氛。
