The Pros and Cons of MFA Programs in Creative Writing

Creative writing courses, whether online or in-person, can be a great way for you to either learn craft or to supplement what you already know. If you’re a writer, especially a published writer, you know you have to write, even if you don’t know what works and what doesn’t work in your writing. You may write in #solitude while writing your first draft (either short story, novel, whatever), or you may write and then meet with other writers at set times—every week, two weeks, or whatever schedule your writing group decides. While what I speak of are writing groups, I consider them courses as well—because you’re learning as you work with your fellow workshoppers. That said, there is a difference between workshopping your writing with a group of other published or unpublished writers, and taking online writing courses or in-person writing courses. Like getting your MFA in #creative #writing #online and in-person courses are normally taught by professional writers, meaning they have been published, teach writing at the college level, or have, at one time or another, worked as a professional in the publishing industry. So, let’s tackle online writing #courses first. Depending on the type of writing course you’ve enrolled in dictates what you’ll get out of it. There are a lot of courses out there, from Masterclass.com to Reedsy.com (which is a great resource but is more geared toward the services around writing and #publishing #books ), to individuals who have decided to take their experiences as teachers, writers, editors, agents, and so on to offer their knowledge and background as services that can help writers learn craft, the publishing industry, and how to “break through” the noise in order to acquire an agent and, hopefully, a publishing deal with either one of the large, traditional publishers or an indie publisher. NovelMasterClass.com and our #blog , NovelMasterClass.blog/blog is one of the latter. While we haven’t launched our actual courses yet, we’ll be including video modules on craft, recommendations on craft books and books we believe are exceptional representatives of their genre, worksheets, templates, and writing prompts, as well as including manuscript consultations and services of varying intensity/level of editing and personalization for those who benefit from such one-on-one interactions. The courses and materials will be online. The writing/workshopping sessions will be done via email, phone, and either facetime, skype, zoom, or whatever platform you prefer. At any rate, depending on your learning style, some courses will suit you better than others. The video addresses many of the pros and cons of in-person, or full-residency programs, versus Low-Residency programs, which require you work in-person/on-campus two weeks out of the year, while the rest of the time you work from home with your facilitator (usually just one writer) per semester. During that time you'll be able to #write what you want (normally a #novel or short #story collection), or a book of #poems . While not everyone needs to attain an MFA in #creativewriting , for many it's a motivator and helpful to their making progress on their writing projects.
