MFA in a Box

John Rember

Finalist:Midwest Book Award (MIPA) -Reference (2010)
By exploring the relationship between the writer and love, grief, place, family, race and violence, John Rember helps you see how to go deep in your writing. He also tells you what you'll find there and how to get back. Along the way, you'll learn how to see the world as a writer sees it. "If you have real talent," says Rember, "and choose to go it alone without learning from all of the thousands of writers who have gone before you, for a long time you're going to write like Grandma Moses paints." MFA in a Box will help you take language from translucency to transparency, and make your readers feel like you've written for them alone.
