As I contemplated applying to grad school again, I realized that the hardest part of the process might be getting letters of recommendation for my creative work. But I would like to thank two people who vouched for me. Jacob Silkstone, managing editor at the U.K. and Pakistan based international journal The Missing Slate , vouched for me by way of the pieces I'd published there. I also reached out to a professional writing contact, Judge JoAnne Kloppenberg, now the presiding judge of the Wisconsin Court of Appeals . I was lucky enough to have Jo Anne represent many of my decisions in the environmental protection unit of the Department of Justice. She vouched for my quasi-judicial decisions and lawyerly writing. With their help, I was accepted into the MFA program in fiction at Augsburg College in Minneapolis. Thanks to both for your support, and more on Augsburg in a later post.
