My daughter was awarded a full tuition scholarship at Hollins although she decided to attend a different college.

In her interview I think she brought the artwork she completed for HS English assignments (one was a funny graphic novel of Hamlet). I probably encouraged that bc Hollins has a MFA in Children’s book writing and illustration which I think is the only one in the U.S. I thought/think she would be a great Children’s book writer and illustrator bc she is very creative and loves books. She is also outgoing and very personable so I’m sure that helped.

She’s now a middle school English teacher and gets to share her love of books that way.
