Hey ewoj, I just graduated from Texas State as an undergrad, and had the chance to work closely with Debra Monroe on my final honors thesis. She is amazing, and so is a lot of the other staff there. If you have any questions about that school, I can do my best to answer. I was a creative writing minor, so I made the rounds of the staff but don't have as much experience as a major would have.
Anyway, I'm looking to apply to as many programs as I possibly can. I have a few samples that might work (with some polishing), but I haven't really started on any of the other work. I'm starting to feel discouraged by how prepared y'all seem in comparison. I don't even have a complete list. It's hard to know where to apply.
One thing I've been desperately searching for-- would anyone who accepted to a program at some point be willing to share an excerpt of their sample?? I just want to know how I stack up. Honestly, I'm starting to really doubt if I'm even a good enough writer to stand any real chance at acceptance somewhere.
