Works in Progress: A Creative Writing MFA Reading Series

We are thrilled that the UNM Creative Writing Program’s MFA Reading Series, Works in Progress (WIP), will be at FUSION this fall! Join us for WIP at FUSION | The Cell on November 15th, at 7 PM!

At WIP, three MFA students in the creative writing program will read from a work in progress, accompanied by one faculty reader. The November 15th readers are Dan Mueller (faculty), Emily Graves, Candra Lowery, and Emma Gannon.

This is a FREE event and is open to the public. We hope you join us!

 

ABOUT UNM CREATIVE WRITING PROGRAM

UNM’s English Department offers a full array of creative writing workshops in poetry, fiction, and creative nonfiction on the undergraduate and graduate levels.

Undergraduate students may register for introductory, intermediate, and advanced workshops in all three genres. Additionally, they are invited to attend readings sponsored by UNM’s Masters of Fine Arts Program and participate as readers on Blue Mesa Review. Qualifying undergraduates interested in pursuing creative writing on the graduate level are encouraged to work with a faculty mentor on a creative writing Honors Thesis. And every fall undergraduate creative writers compete for the prestigious Lena Todd Awards, a small cash stipend and the opportunity to share their work at the Works-in-Process Reading Series.

UNM’s MFA Program in Creative Writing is designed for graduate students committed to pursuing the writing life. This three-year degree combines studio-based workshops in fiction, poetry, and creative nonfiction with craft seminars and coursework in literature, teaching pedagogy, and professional writing.
