[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]As someone who has worked in this space[/b], I'd like to call attention to the fact that the Brown Table essay everyone loves so much is on the "forbidden topics" or "overdone topics" lists you see a lot of -- death of a grandparent. This is proof that there is no such thing as a list of topics you can't write about. Just wanted to point that out. Agree with the PP who cautions against applicants using that essay as a model though. It is a great essay, coming from a young writer anyway, but when I read it I want a lot more insight into the writer and who they are. [/quote] You may have worked "in this space", but you do not understand if you thought that the essay was about the "death of a grandparent".[/quote] Death of a grandparent is a very strong theme in that essay. Stop blathering. [/quote]
