new magazine articles

writing sample #1

Hello again world.   Well, I’ve been debating how to go about posting my writing samples without sacrificing relative anonymity.  The samples I submitted to all of the schools I applied to were from a magazine I’ve been writing for for about a year and a half.  The problem is my name is plastered all [...]
