The Journey Begins…

Welcome to the Fairfield University MFA Blog-space… Micheal White and I have decided to co-host this venture in service to and for benefit of the Fairfield MFA community. We have some great plans for this site, including some pages featuring publications of our faculty and students, up-to-date information about our Inspired Writer Distinguished Authors Series, articles and interviews about the craft of writing, and opportunities for students to connect with each other and faculty leading up to the first residence–throughout their program of study–and as they emerge on the other side as graduates. Above all else, we want this to be a space wherein you, our students, are able to both lose yourselves in the deontological pleasures of engaging each other as well as connect with specific content that holds your interest. With that aim in mind, I will be mining the dashboard for indications of what you want and how well you like have we have while Micheal will be his brilliant self–writing about writing and getting his friends to do the same.

So please send me comments about what you want to see here, or just to let us know that you came by to look. To our first class, please accept my congratulations on both being accepted into our program as well as my appreciate for your selecting Fairfield. We will do our all to be worthy of your trust and attention.

I like to think that I am an easy guy to reach. Either leave a comment here (which will become public) or send me an email to aperkus@mail.fairfield.edu or make friends with me on Facebook (and yes, we are going to explore creating a group page there as well…)

Warmly,
Aaron
