Section Information for Spring 2019
This course is Intended to prepare second-year Prose MFA students for thesis work, which is typically undertaken during the third year. My hope is that it will act as a creative incubator for the most important project of your degree. Whether or not you have already found your subject matter, decided upon a format or begun work on your thesis, you will define your focus, prepare a proposal you can live with and start/continue writing. Discussions will focus on current issues in prose, approaches to narrative and a short reading list that each student will devise according to her/his own interests. In-class writing will be a component of this course but our final weeks will be devoted to workshopping thesis excerpts – whether fully-formed or embryonic – so that you can hit the ground running. Open to both Fiction and Nonfiction students.
