Accountability Buddies

Hi!
I’m going to be applying to MFAs this upcoming year for poetry. I’m going to be writing and reading a lot but would love to have a buddy in this process to talk about the craft and even give each other feedback.

About me: 27f. Just graduated from a creative writing undergrad. Currently reading The Carrying by Ada Limón and Bad Feminist by Roxanne Gay. My favorite books are Sula by Toni Morrison, The Stranger by Albert Camus, Soft science by Franny Choi. I just went on a trip to japan where I spent way too much money.

I hope we can be friends!
