<p>Recommendations:
AP English and Composition Teacher: A very positive evaluation. She was sure to emphasize talent, passion, and ability for creative writing.
An Emerson Alumni: Another very positive evaluation. She highlighted my talent for creative writing in a letter, and additionally submitted a piece of writing I had given her. She also put me in a contact with a relatively famous, published author, Matt Hall, who kindly said that I should be watched because I have talent. She quoted this in her letter.)
