Katie you might also consider signing up for one of the classes at The Writer’s Garrett. It’s a local writing program that has a community service aspect and is worth a close look. Their web site is at: http://www.writersgarret.org/

Hi, David. I just stumbled upon your blog while I was searching for some kind of creative writing program or even just some classes in Dallas. I was surprised to see such a lack of options. I appreciate your thoughts and suggestions on here. It’s hard to stay focused and motivated to keep writing while also being a full-time parent (I definitely get this). Hope you keep us up to date on how your DIY MFA is going. Thanks.

I am so on board with this idea, it isn’t even funny.
