Would anybody be willing to look over a 7 page paper about Sarah Ruhl's Eurydice?
There's no need to really be familiar with the material, but it couldn't hurt. I would like to know if I have any awful typos or if the paper seems awkward on incomplete. Detail feedback and/or big picture stuff would both help.
I'm an MFA fiction applicant and a few schools require that I submit an expository sample. It's quite short, but I'm an English minor in undergrad and I don't really have any papers much longer than 10 pages, and most of those are old and would need some serious editing for me to even consider them.

Just leave your e-mail and I'll send you a copy. It would be great if one or two of you could do this for me, I'll gladly return the favor on a paper or SOP or anything else.

How long after you wrote the test did YOU receive your official score? I know they say 10-15 days, but does that include weekends? Did you actually receive it 10-15 days later or was it more/less? Thanks.

I'm revising my SOP for an English department in which one of my absolute academic heroes works. Not the biggest of the big or "famous" by any means, but well known across several fields and someone who has honestly influenced the way I think and whose work I have read and nearly underlined/post-it flagged into oblivion.

But I find myself rewriting the "fit" paragraph for this school, and saying something like "I would be honored to work with X" or anything similarly gushy just sounds... kinda wrong. I'm applying to a healthy number of schools, and I certainly do my research for each one and try to say honestly who interests me in the respective department. But how to say "I really, really want to work with this person x 100!" without sounding too gushy, or just rehashing their CV, and whatnot? Right now I'm leaning towards the direct, concise approach...just a few sentences about their work, my interests and work, and, yes, the "I would be honored" line, because, frankly, I would. And if my candor comes off as fake, or hokey, or application boilerplate, so be it. I spent weeks worrying about whether I'd be judged by a split infinitive, or my printer paper stock, or [insert crazy inane thing here], and I'm at the point where I'm just ready to lay it on the line.

I'd appreciate any thoughts you might have :)

You will always be Mommy's favorite.

You know that....


BUT...please do not be jealous of the new Iguana I got today.

He's just a real tiny baby!

so please stop trying to knock over his cage....you frighten him an awful lot. And you would make mommy very sad if you hurt the baby that daddy bought for her. He was very expensive.

Thank you

Love always, mommy


P.S.
The next time the dog's swollen face bursts open and leaks all over the rug....PLEASE REFRAIN FROM LICKING THE PUS.
THAT'S DISGUSTING. D:
