Thesis Writing I

Catalog description

Begin to develop the novel that serves as a thesis for the MFA program. Build a detailed plan that documents the writing process and prepares next steps to be taken toward novel completion. Engage in constructive workshopping, and reflect both on one’s place within a literary community and on how one’s work fits within the publishing ecosystem. Cultivate self-confidence and practical outreach skills by preparing and presenting an effective “elevator” pitch of a novel.
