This morning, we're learning the basics of book arts with our own incomparable Stephanie Sauer. During our hybrid residency, we're learning through the virtual space as well as the tangible. We're looking forward to seeing the artists' books our students make! #mfaota #bookarts

This semester’s residency @StetsonMFA was so inspiring. I’m feeling so accomplished. Here’s my take on braiding. https://t.co/1RORqNocLm

Eric Clapton, who has for years told us peripheral neuropathy caused his hands to hurt making it difficult to play guitar, NOW tells us the Covid vaccine causes his hand to hurt making it difficult to play guitar

Stop playing games please - it’s not funny

Let's hear it for birthday girl and MFAotA grad, Rebecca Renner! She's kind of a big deal. 😍

You can also shower me with affection, because I’m spending yet another birthday alone.

[MFA of the Americas @StetsonMFA]

🥳🥳🥳 L3let's hear it for the talented @RebeccaRennerFL !

Some of you might be wondering why I’m gadding about in the Everglades doing book research all of a sudden.

Well...that’s because I sold it last week for *a lot* of money. Drop-everything-and-just-write kind of money. So I am.

Y’ALL, I SOLD MY FIRST BOOK!!!

@RebeccaRennerFL @MSPAuthor Ohhh?

I'm opening up my writing coaching services again: I'm offering one-on-one sessions where I answer all your questions about the business of writing, such as pitching stories, pursuing investigations, or finding an agent. DM me or keep reading if interested. 1/

We assured them (1.) You don't need to peg yourself into a genre, or at least not for us (2.) Absolutely no one writes just like you -- thank goodness and (3.) We understand you, we will be your people!

[MFA of the Americas @StetsonMFA]

During #AWP19 we met so many writers who acted as if they had to confess to us that they don't know what genre of writing they favor or if there is anyone else who writes like they do or if anyone even understands what they are creating.

If these humans look like your people, come talk with us TONIGHT during our online information session. #MFAotA #prose #poetryintheexpandedfield #experimental #findyourpeople

"For many viewers, it is the sexual tension between Higgins and Eliza that creates the movie’s mystique. But for others, it’s the tension of ambiguity that draws us in."

@RebeccaRennerFL goes behind the scenes of an American cinematic classic.
