Notes
0/7. Damn, didn't make it in my first round. I knew I applied to some really competitive programs but I was hoping to get one or two. Does anyone here not have an English/Creative Writing background? My degree is in something completely unrelated and I pieced my portfolio together from what I've done in a couple weekly workshops. That's all the feedback I have ever received. Any advice would be great since I mostly applied with a section of a novel-length work and have never written short stories. I think I would have had a better chance with that.
