Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As Rember notes in his introduction, "MFA in a Box is not a how to write book. It's a why to write book." By exploring the relationships between the writer and love, grief, place, family, race and violence, Rember helps writers dive deep into their own writing. He tells them how they can breathe down there and how they can get back. "A big part of writing involves grappling with the terrors and discouragements that come when you have writing skills but can"t project yourself or your work into the future," says Rember. "My hope is that MFA in a Box will help writers balance the despair of writing with the joy of writing."--Publisher.
