Wednesday, 18 December, 2024

Welcome to DIY MFA Radio, where I do a deep dive into the writing life as well as the craft and business of writing. Today's episode ends our series: Ten Lessons from Ten Years of Podcasting. This is Lesson 10 – Embrace the Journey. Have you gotten the DIY MFA Starter Kit yet? This is a two week email series full of worksheets to help you DIY your MFA, so you can get the "knowledge without the college." You'll learn more about how to write with focus, read with purpose, and build your community. You'll also receive Writer Fuel, our newsletter full of words of wisdom and resources to help you keep the momentum going in your writing.

The importance of giving each year a theme or name. How to use that yearly theme to course-correct or keep yourself on track For more info and show notes: diymfa.com/485
