“I began writing poetry and short stories as a young child and quickly learned that words were magical and powerful. Since that I time I
have had a life-long love affair with creative writing. After working as a nurse for 26 years, I decided that it was time to embrace that love and follow it wherever it lead me. The Arkansas Writers MFA Workshop came into being at just the right moment in my life! Since joining the
program, I have gained so much confidence in my writing and in myself. This program has offered me incredible
support, wonderful mentors, and a real chance to grow into the writer I want to be, the writer
that I’m meant to be.”
