What I didn't do with my English B.A.

I was accepted at Temple MFA and Penn State. Playwrighting, which was unusual because they don't usually take English BA's. They made an exception because I sent 2 versions of my play, the second a re-write. They liked that I was a good re-wrighter.

Even Mozart re-wrote. Despite Amadeaus which implies his music plopped out perfectly formed like well-formed stools. Well, no, not quite. Re-write.

I didn't go because I was afraid. I stayed home and worked for John Hancock Insurance 5 minutes up the road. Administrative assistant. Not that it wasn't good experience, but if I'd had any sort of guidance, I'd be anywhere else.

I had no guidance.

I've never had luck finding mentors. I've decided to mentor myself. Imperfect, harsh, but what else can I do?
