I thought this looked brilliant and someone (someone?) might be interested:

Syllabus for a self-directed MA in Creative Writing 2019

"Most of the great writers we read had no MAs, but very different qualifications: life experience, yearning, a typewriter, a well-read library. Their writing courses were self-assembled."

I was lucky enough to get a BA in English, even though it took me 24 years to complete it. My actual MA is in Geography. That was fun. And is pretty useful in writing. I learned a lot about what a "Sense of Place" really meant and how it helps in being a decent writer.

I read the syllabus you posted here, Fuzzy girl, and it is a wonderful way to get an education in creative writing. The sooner one gets to it the better. I may try to complete it before I become an octogenarian.

Lol, it is like that

The MA info looks interesting. I’ve never done any kind of course in creative writing, so it’s something I should look at when time permits.

Thank you for posting this. I've considered an MA before but balked at the price. I might try this!

Of the four books he talks about, I know the LeGuin and the King. Don't really even know the other two authors. I should give LeGuin's a try. She's arguably one of the best writers of the latter half of the 20th century and probably one of the top ten or so in sf and fantasy.

There's an element of heat in this story.
