The blank page is daunting, but FDU Magazine sheds light on the creative-writing process — the muses that inspire, the tricks of the trade and the art of the craft in a digital world — with an exciting roundtable featuring acclaimed writers who are faculty members in the University’s master of fine arts in creative writing program.

• Five of FDU’s creative writing faculty published new books in 2014. Take a peek at these works and what the reviewers have been saying about them here.
