This collection includes Capstone Theses submitted by Hamline Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing (MFA) students. Capstones are the culminating degree work of the MFA program. Student projects may be creative nonfiction, poetry, fiction, or hybrid/multi-genre projects. Most capstones are not complete, book-length works, but are somewhat shorter projects that are revised in response to thorough feedback from the thesis committee to demonstrate mastery of the elements of the craft in the project's genre.
