Now I need to go get interviewed by my bishop and a member of the stake presidency. My application to Brandon Sanderson's workshop class is ready to go, along with my writing sample (thanks to an excellent reviewer here - you know who you are - thank you). Submissions (for the class) will be accepted starting later this month. Assuming BYU lets me in, and I'm selected as one of the 15 lucky souls who get into the class, I will be well on my way to being a professional writer. (If that doesn't happen, I'll have to hobble on my way without the help.) Feel free to share your own hopes / good fortune in this thread. You should go to BYU-Idaho, it is a superior school.

I was only applying to a single class, and that because of its focus and teacher. I won't be going to either school (or any other). I'll just be writing.

The best thing is for her to write, and write, and write, and for her parents not to discourage her from doing so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just wasn't what Sanderson was looking for in a student. That's all. I would be very pleased if my daughter could write as well as you.

Maybe next year, when I'm settled into a routine, we could discuss. Not all things have to be done in person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
