Cynthia Sally Haggard:
Why did you decide to take two years out of your life to get an MFA in Creative Writing degree?
Cynthia Sally Haggard
Initially, it was to get some street cred as an author. In our society of extremely qualified people, it is always good to be able to say that you acquired a degree from a well-respected place such as Lesley University in Cambridge MA. So I saw it as a gateway degree. But what I came to appreciate after acquiring my degree was how much it had made me a much better writer.
