Good day, sir and/or madam! I'd like to request some assistance.

<p>This assistance is with two things:</p>

<p>1) My Common App personal statement. Just a general read-and-critique sort of deal.
2) The Autobiographical Character Sketch I have to submit to USC as part of my application to the Screenwriting program at the School of Cinematic Arts. The directions are:</p>

<p>"The sketch should reflect your individuality and evoke an understanding of you came to be who you are. You may write a creative essay or short story."</p>

<p>The catch is: I'm not done. However, I'm going in a somewhat unorthodox direction with it and I have enough written for that direction to be very easily discernible. What I'm asking is that you read what I have and see if you hate it or think it's acceptable.</p>

<p>I'm more than willing to read your essay(s) if you read mine. PM me for links to PDFs of my stuff.</p>
