Grad School Application Guide
I'm just going to start this off by saying this is far from a perfect and complete guide for applying to grad school, much of what I have here is picked up from various other guides online. This is just the tips and tricks that I have learned so far in my planning to apply. Don't stop your research here but please feel free to use this as another resource. Now, hello. I'm Kris. I'm an English major and an Education major and I'm applying to graduate school at the end of this year. Yeah, November/December of 2018 and I'm working on it already. I am a first generation college student and I have to admit, it's pretty overwhelming to figure out everything yourself. I've made it through community college and I am doing well at University but I have to admit, when it comes to turning in grad school applications, I feel totally overwhelmed.

At the beginning of 2016, I decided I wanted to create an online literary magazine. While taking a course about poetry with an emphasis on publishing and literary magazines, I was quickly inspired to create my own magazine and involve my peers in the process. I also soon realized that this would take A LOT of time, effort, money, and at least a few people. Thankfully, with the help of my husband and the few people who have stuck with the magazine and what it stands for, Independent Noise is still up and running. If you are interested in joining a literary magazine or starting your own, here are some starting tips.

I Hate My Job, and Other Complaints
Over the Christmas period I spoke to a lot of friends who were deeply unsatisfied in their careers, and now that we have moved into the New Year, I am speaking to friends who are frustrated and need a change, for their own sanity more than anything.
