MFA Blog 2007

**NEW FEATURE**

Hi everyone. Just chillin' so far this summer, but...

I'm going to add a number of contributors to the MFA blog in the next few days. We'll have MFA grads, current students, and prospective students. They'll offer insight into the writing and graduate school process and hopefully we'll have a lot of good discussions here on the blog.

So, check back with us starting in early July.

And... if you think YOU might be a good contributor this our blog, drop me an email and we can talk it over.

The Handbook offers an overview of the graduate writing experience, profiles and rankings of more than fifty creative writing programs, advice about the application process, and insight into making the best choice of programs. There is a comprehensive list of all graduate writing programs, both in and outside the United States, a list of helpful sources on and off-line, and interviews with teachers and students, including George Saunders, Aimee Bender, Geoffrey Wolff, and Tracy K. Smith.
