Creative Writing Residency I - Nonfiction

Catalog description

Students attend the same residencies as students in the Mountainview MFA, participating in the Mountainview peer workshops each morning, offering sections of their creative manuscripts for critique and offering critiques of other students’ work, following the same workshop guidelines as Mountainview MFA students. Rather than attend the MFA craft talks in the afternoon, however, they attend advanced-level craft talks tailored to the needs of students attempting to reconceive and revise a long work. The talks might also engage with topics not typically covered in an MFA program. Subjects might include: Rewriting; Comedy; Landscape.
