[MFAngle Jingle]

Mirna: Hello, hello, welcome to MFAngle. This is your host, Mirna, 2nd year poet.

Bessie: And I’m Bessie, a first-year fiction writer. This is a podcast about the experience of being in a creative writing MFA program, beginning with applications, moving through workshopping, writing, and life after the MFA.

Mirna: We are currently students in an MFA program, so we have fresh takes. Our voices come from very diverse backgrounds, so we are attuned to the different ways in which the white patriarchy still hides in plain sight.

Bessie: The purpose of the podcast is to provide you, the listener and potential applicant, with an insider’s perspective on this messy, messy process.

Mirna: Check back in for our first episode, which will be up on Thursday, Nov 14th. Links to our website and Twitter will be in the show notes so you can keep up with us. Okay byeee!
