What do writers say about our curriculum?

Hundreds of writers have seen their work published, their strengths accelerate, and their community grow in our research-based program.
“Francesca held a positive, non-judgmental space for tackling writing hick-ups in my novel. Because I’m also a poet and fiction writer, I felt like she brought a fresh perspective to fiction writing with her poetic background and helped me truly see that both have a place in fiction writing… She brought a lot of clarity through simple, clear suggestions regarding the flow of my novel and connecting the dots in my plot that I didn’t have before starting with our cohort. Francesca does a wonderful job making a writer feel seen and heard in their process.”
 

Katy — Summer ’24

“When all you can hear is are your own self-doubting, judgmental voice, it is important and an act of profound self-care to seek out voices that drown that out, and remind you that being a ‘writer’ is a superpower. Whether it pays the bills or not, it’s a gift, and you owe it to yourself not to squander it – PocketMFA reminded me of that when I was almost willing to put it on a shelf and lock the closet door..” 

 

Melanie — Spring ’25

“Besides the obvious outcome of the experience helping me to cultivate + operationalize my writing/revising/submitting and reading/ruminating routines, my biggest and most unexpected takeaway is the kindness with which the program is imbued and, which it inculcated in all of us. The mantra of making someone excited to go back to working on their work is so precious 😊 Please don’t ever stop talking about this, and walking the talk on it!”

Shirley — Winter ’24
