For the past four years, I've worked my *** off. I do everything a good student is supposed to do. I never miss a class. I never turn work in late. I email my profs when I have questions and make it a point to only visit during their office hours. I'm graduating with a 3.85 gpa. I got an A on my senior exam. I have a minor in Creative Writing. I have done everything I know to do to the best of my abilities. While focusing on school, I haven't let my writing go forgotten. I have finished three full length novels, one of which will be published in May, and I've worked on about a million other projects, including short stories, poems, plays, and screenplays.
So after all of that, why can't I go to grad school? Why can't I get an MFA? Why did every school I apply to summarily reject me? What the hell did I do wrong? Five schools. Five rejection letters. Right now, I still have six weeks of school. I can't give up and slack off. But I don't even care anymore.
