i am auditioning for an art school for creative writing. and i need some help.
i was online reading what i would have to do for the audition, and there was a page for interview tips. one of them was they often decline students just because of the stuff they read. they are strongly against, "young adult novels" (like twilight, harry potter, etc). anyway, they say you get mega points if you read "adult" novels, short stories, poems, etc.
what are some cool authors i could check out and read, so im ready for my interview? and poets too.
Theres also a poet i like, but I can't remember his name! he wrote a small book of poems about his deceased wife, and him dealing with the loss. the book itself was black, and his wife i believe died of cancer.
Any help I would appreciate.
