The event will center on the thesis process—the making of a manuscript in both fiction and poetry. All four writers will present short readings of their work, and will engage in a conversation about the mentor/mentee relationship that develops as students complete their final year in the MFA program. Ashley Wurzbacher (fiction) and Sunni Wilkinson (poetry) will discuss how they, with the help of their cohorts and advisors Gregory Spatz and Christopher Howell, turned their thesis manuscripts into published collections. Casey Guerin (also an alum of the MFA program) will moderate the conversation. If you’re curious about writing programs and want to learn more about Eastern’s highly sought after MFA, this is the event for you!
