Over the course of this winter, I finished a book I've been working on since the summer. It will soon be published and printed. All of my writing is done under a pen name.
Of course, I spent hundreds upon hundreds of hours passionately devoting myself to writing said book, and it is a very big part of who I am. Writing is now my "job" and a huge passion of mine.
However, I would not want ADCOMS to read the novel, unless I'd already been accepted - the book isn't politically correct and contains "suggestive" themes, which could obviously shed bad light on my character (despite the fact that it's just a book).
Should I include the fact that I've written a book (and should have another done within the next year) without being able to actually show the Admissions staff? It's a bummer to think I'll have to exclude something that's been such an integral part of my life, but I also don't think I can actually show them the book.
Any thoughts and all advice is appreciated.
