Jared McCormack is the host and producer of the MFA Writers Podcast, an audio resource documenting the landscape of creative writing graduate programs. Drawing on his experience as a fiction editor for Witness magazine and his own academic background at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, McCormack conducts deep-dive interviews with students and faculty from institutions like Syracuse University and the University of Missouri. The podcast provides transparency regarding program cultures and funding structures through established segments such as the Faculty Series and the MFA Draft sessions. A recent addition to the catalog is the Debut Author Series, which follows former student guests as they transition into published novelists and poets. By featuring authors like Maurice Carlos Ruffin and institutions like the Institute of American Indian Arts, McCormack creates a specialized archive for the literary community. His expertise in the craft is further verified by his own fiction publications in journals including Gulf Coast and The Florida Review.
