Book Description
Get the Knowledge Without the College! You are a writer. You dream of sharing your words with the world, and you're willing to put in the hard work to achieve success. You may have even considered earning your MFA, but for whatever reason--tuition costs, the time commitment, or other responsibilities--you've never been able to do it. Or maybe you've been looking for a self-guided approach so you don't have to go back to school. This book is for you. DIY MFA is the do-it-yourself alternative to a Master of Fine Arts in creative writing. By combining the three main components of a traditional MFA--writing, reading, and community--it teaches you how to craft compelling stories, engage your readers, and publish your work. Inside you'll learn how to: • Set customized goals for writing and learning. • Generate ideas on demand. • Outline your book from beginning to end. • Breathe life into your characters. • Master point of view, voice, dialogue, and more. • Read with a "writer's eye" to emulate the techniques of others. • Network like a pro, get the most out of writing workshops, and submit your work successfully. Writing belongs to everyone--not only those who earn a degree. With DIY MFA, you can take charge of your writing, produce high-quality work, get published, and build a writing career.

Book Description
Working with mixed-media art is one of those instances where artists are able to experience something a bit more free. Rather than working within a specific set of rules, guidelines, and procedures, artists experiment with how various mediums work together. There's also opportunity to experiment with non-traditional materials, as well as items that are typically destined for the recycling bin.The work presented in this book is meant as a basic guide and jumping off point for beginners looking to get their hands dirty. Messy art is a lot of fun for children, as well as adults. Introduce this type of art experimentation in any setting from the classroom to the kitchen. The beauty of this type of artistic experimentation and exploration is that, if you make a mistake, the piece can quickly take on a new life by adding or subtracting different mediums. Open yourself up to a whole new world of creativity!
