CORO / OFFICE HOURS!
FRIENDS! Time for another CORO / OFFICE HOURS. If you have any questions regarding building stories or building worlds or the creative life in general, please post below.
As always: I will attempt to answer 1-2 questions per CORO – in an ideal world, at least one of our questions will be related to writing / reading / creating / flourishing as a person of color.
I will do my beset to be helpful and please forgive me that I can only answer a fraction of questions received and only the ones I feel qualified at the moment to weigh in on. Doesn’t mean your question doesn’t rock; it’s me that doesn’t always rock.
Ta to: please post your questions below and off we go!
Nota Bene, with apologies: CORO is for pay subscribers only.
Hi:
While I understand the definition of Show and Tell, I would like to see a post on this at some point. Thanks.
A good friend of mine is applying to a traditional MFA. She wrote a great sample but the punctuation is very untraditional (a lot of lower case, etc.) She asked for my input. Do I tell her the truth and say she should change it to normal punctuation in time for submission? Her sample is really good but from what I understand, she's likely to be automatically slush-piled... What Would Junot Do?
