Researchers and college essay coaches Dr. Elizabeth Stone and Meredith Charlson join Peter Fenton for a discussion on perhaps the most unique offering from the City Limits Publishing library. THE BETTER COLLEGE ESSAY FROM START TO FINISH is a resource guide for mentors of high school students coaching them to write a BETTER (key word, better—not "best") version of their college essay. Stone and Charlson discuss some of their best practices of what they do to draw insightful stories out of a teenager's lived experience.

You can pick up a copy of THE BETTER COLLEGE ESSAY on Amazon.com, Bookshop.org, or directly from City Limits Publishing at https://citylimitspublishing.com/collections/non-fiction/products/the-better-college-essay
