If you've ever contemplated getting your MFA in Creative Writing, this is the episode for you. We've got a panel on the MFA in Creative Writing experience with three members of the Lesley University community: Boston Poet Laureate and Lesley University MFA in Creative Writing Interim Director Danielle Legros Georges, Associate Director Janet Pocorobba and alumna Heather Hughes, an associate editor at Harvard University Press.
The three authors writers talk about Lesley's low-residency program, diversity in MFA programs, and what an MFA program can and can't do for you. A Q&A with the audience rounds out this episode.
Recorded at the Boston Book Festival by Studio 125.
