Virtual Writing Life Residency

April 2026 • A Month of Craft, Community, and Creative Momentum

For the first time, we’re opening the PocketMFA Writing Life Residency to a small group of writers outside the program.

For the entire month of April, our community gathers online for a series of seminars, craft talks, generative sessions, public readings, and conversations about the writing life.

It’s the closest thing we’ve found to recreating the creative energy of an in-person residency — except you can join from anywhere.

Because you’ve applied to PocketMFA in the past, we’re extending you a private invitation to attend as a Residency Guest.

Cost: $297
Format: All events live on Zoom
Access: All recordings available for 30 days after the residency
