Скачать или смотреть Steven Duong — Iowa Writers’ Workshop

Welcome to Season 3! It’s finally time to tackle the oldest and most famous MFA of them all: the Iowa Writers’ Workshop. On this episode, Steven Duong and Jared discuss whether Iowa lives up to its competitive stereotype, the challenges and freedoms of playing with writing conventions and constraints, and why he—a long-time poet—decided to pursue a fiction degree.

He is the recipient of fellowships from the Academy of American Poets, the Watson Foundation, and the University of Iowa, and his poems, stories, and essays can be found in publications including The New England Review (https://www.nereview.com/vol-43-no-2-...) , The American Poetry Review (https://www.stevenduongwrites.com/wri...) , and Guernica (https://www.guernicamag.com/ordnance/) .
