Maya’s Career Goals
I want to be a professor in world literature (and maybe philosophy, specifically aesthetics). I also want to be a creative and freelance writer on the side, specifically poetry, short stories, comics, and game writing.

How should I decide on an MFA program for Writing?
I see a lot of programs and I'm overwhelmed by which factors I should consider. Preferably, I would like a high-residency program that wouldn't require me to go into debt or expects me to pay too much out of pocket. My strongest medium is poetry, but I also like to write in prose.

What are the best websites to use as a freelance creative writer?
Should I limit myself to a few websites or put my profile and portfolio? Are there different sites that are better for me as a creative writer rather than a technical writer?

How can I gain experience with freelance script and game writing and build a portfolio?
When I look at jobs on LinkedIn I see they usually require 2 years of experience. I would like to write part time and I’m curious about how to gain experience while I’m still at school.
