I’m gonna level with you. I am CONSTANTLY burdened with feelings of inadequacy when I think about the University of Iowa’s legendary Writers’ Workshop. Everyone who was better than me in my creative writing seminars in college went to Iowa, and now they have written real books and stuff, instead of just owning a feminist humor site that is read by 99% of librarians and archivists in New England.

This is Iowa, as far as I know:

But probably with more corn?

ANYWAY, I was super excited to learn about the University of Iowa’s International Writing Program’s “How Writers Write Fiction 2015”, which gives scrubs like me a chance to learn from the greats via the comfort of my own bed.

Now, are you ready for the best part?

IT’S FREE AND CLASSES START NEXT THURSDAY. YOU CAN REGISTER AS OF TODAY AND ENJOY THE WELCOME WEEK FESTIVITIES RIGHT AWAY.
