Devoted to publishing, publishers and to those who craft the written word

If you feel stuck in your dayjob and writing, I've got an extreme solution for you: Peace Corps. 

I'll never forget writing this story, How To Survive a Chicken Bus Crash. I was sitting out in Guatemala in the Peace Corps, lonely, binge-reading, and writing-blocked. Suddenly, while riding a bus home to my village, this wild story popped into my head--changing my writing style forever.

Now, you can sign up for a creative writing MFA program that will actually send you out to Peace Corps. It was founded by two Peace Corps novelists, John Coyne and Richard Wiley, and you can find it at the Creative Writing MFA Program at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.

Besides all the self-less reasons for joining Peace Corps, this could be your ticket to the freedom, inspiration, and writing time that you need. Check it out: 

"[It is a] four-year Peace Corps Master’s International Program that allows students to complete course-work in two years and write their theses during a two-year Peace Corps assignment. For more information, check out this link."
