Are you a fiction writer who applied to MFA programs this year and struck out? Would you like to workshop with an experienced instructor and other hopefuls to improve your writing sample and statement of purpose? Then, join me for a six-week workshop where I discuss what MFA programs are looking for, how to organize your SOP, and strategies for revising your sample.

I have been in the Creative Writing MFA game for the past nine years and have helped countless student navigate the MFA application process. Last year's workshop participants have gotten into programs like Iowa, Michigan, and Vanderbilt.
