courses that teach one *how* to write detective/horror/

Florida Atlantic University offers a class called Detective
Fiction and it depends on who's teaching it how it is
offered. I took it last semester and it was hard boiled. It's
not offered every semester however, maybe once every year or
two.
I don't know for sure but I think that Florida International
University offers writing classes in mystery. The head of the
creative writing program is James W. Hall and a couple of
mystery writing alumni are Christine Kling and Dennis
Lehane.
