I alluded to further developments in my previous post. Just to help you keep track, there’s three days in the wordsmithy, and then there are more than three days in the wordsmithy. And here is a description, as captured by a statement from NSA:
Merry Christmas to you from New Saint Andrews College. Here’s What’s New at NSA Today . . .
If you’re interested in writing, you may be even more interested in New Saint Andrews’ new graduate writing program. The College’s Board of Trustees has approved the addition of a new writing and literature (“letters”) component to its M.A. degree program starting this fall. The College will also host a new writer’s workshop this summer.
The College is now accepting graduate school applications from aspiring writers for the Fall 2011 launch of its new creative writing and literature M.A. courses. For more information about the new graduate “Letters” program, email Dr. Jonathan McIntosh at jmcintosh@nsa.edu or call 882-1566.
In addition to the new graduate writing program, a summer writer’s workshop, entitled “Three Days in the Wordsmithy,” is set for June 28-July 2, 2011. The workshop is geared for students considering college, graduate school and/or a career in writing. Participants will benefit from three full days of close interaction with N.D. Wilson, Douglas Wilson and Aaron Rench in workshops on poetry, essays, fiction and screen plays. For qualified participants, the workshop instruction and assignments may be eligible for grad school credit. Those interested in the writer’s workshop should email Ben Merkle at bmerkle@nsa.edu for more information or visit www.threedaysinthewordsmithy.com.
