I've...I might work on getting the ball rolling.<br />I've got lots of editing to do before I could submit a writing sample. The little guy needs to get a little older before I do anything but by the time I finish rewriting AND find a way to get references almost 20 years after my last college courses, he'll be older!<br /><br />(Anonymous--I DID--and the fuzzy answer I think I got was that it isn't the right time, right now. But maybe--by the time I'm REALLY ready...) ;)<br /><br />Thanks, all!LoryKChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08160339071841599529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13505255.post-26848489964280336322009-10-14T02:31:49.406-04:002009-10-14T02:31:49.406-04:00Pray about it and let your heart lead you there!Pray about it and let your heart lead you there!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13505255.post-22828718585279438312009-10-12T08:09:35.542-04:002009-10-12T08:09:35.542-04:00I know I'm not a writing friend and I don'...I know I'm not a writing friend and I don't have an MFA. I just wanted to comment. If you want to go for your MFA, I say go for it! :) I'm sure you could handle it, even with 3 little ones in your house. Granted, we were a bit older, but I know of a certain mom who went back to school while she still had kids in the house. It would make like different, but it would be for a good reason. It might give you some "adult" time too :) It might give you a sounding board within a critque circle (or you can just send it to a sister who loves you, and enjoys to read, I will try to be critical (good or bad) :) However, I don't think you necessarily need an MFA to finish your book. I can't think of too many authors that I've read where I have thought "who are they to be writing?, they don't even have a MFA" :) Good luck with your decision :) Sorry if my post here is a bit long, it's been a while since I've been able to post anything (FB still is giving me issues!)jocelynnoreply@blogger.com
