Ordering the Handbook

I'm glad to hear that many of you have received the Creative Writing MFA Handbook and are finding it helpful, and as a few of you have said, entertaining.

I also understand that some of you have had problems finding the book on the Continuum website. I'm working with the publisher to get a direct link and also to make it available on online bookstores.

In the meantime, when you go to the Continuum main page, click U.S. if it prompts you for U.S./U.K. (or click U.K. if you live in the U.K) and then enter "MFA" in the search box. This should bring up the link.

If you're having problems, do email me directly, and I'll see that your problem gets fixed. Thanks for your interest, and thanks to all those who've written in with your comments.

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.
