Its the one thing in life I REALLY want to accomplish, whether or not I get published. I just want to write a book. I thought about majoring in creative writing but the schools that offer the major are either private and super expensive, or really far away from me.Daniellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03666600336978456762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5231243789342999830.post-67667381177684278862012-06-06T10:56:57.918-07:002012-06-06T10:56:57.918-07:00creative careers are so hard because the ideas sta...creative careers are so hard because the ideas start as a part of you, and it becomes so personal! i can relate to that through my graphic design career.<br /><br />also, you should be so proud of yourself for getting into an MFA program! even if it's hard, it will be amazing, and don't ever feel guilty about going. my husband just finished his MA degree and i worked for us both while he did that - it was hard, but so worth it! you guys will be great!Leighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00378420588963772163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5231243789342999830.post-43650295511405688042012-06-06T10:05:15.323-07:002012-06-06T10:05:15.323-07:00A Harry Potter-less world would be sad indeed!
