MFA in a Box by John Rember

5.0

You've read all the writing books you're supposed to. You've followed the plotting script to the letter. But something is still missing from your story, and you know it. John Rember's memoir-as-teaching aid will probably come off more as therapy than technique class, and that's my guess what he was going for in the first place. MFA in a Box will help you unclog your creative drains and get to depths you were afraid of going to before, and touch subject matter you have been hiding away in dusty boxes in your brain for years. Read Stephen King, follow James Scott Bell's outlines but meditate upon John Rember.
