MFA acceptance
« on: March 12, 2005, 07:41:54 PM »
A nice offset to going to the hospital this morning--I got my acceptance letter this afternoon for the dual MFA in writing for children at Simmons. I've been back and forth on whether it's a good idea for me to do this. It is a lot of money, but perhaps I can get a job that will give me tuition reimbursement. It would be good to spend some time focusing on my writing, and now would be the time to do it, while I have the opportunity and the acceptance into a program. On the other hand, if I got a good job offer, it would be good to just go with that and work on my writing on the side, because the writing has never been top priority (but it has been high priority at times, second only to editing).

Not sure what I'll do. I suppose the next month will help things sort themselves out.

Well, congratulations, even if you don't attend.
