She has been working on them, but says they aren't done. I thought it was time, but it sounds like she really has writers block. She says she has no problem writing for her classes, but since she thinks this is "important" and so she feels like she has lost her writer's voice. She says she kind of knows what she wants to say, but is not even 100% committed to that. I have asked to read what she has, have offered to simply sit with her and discuss the prompts, suggested she just dictate the essay and then edit, and have pressed the fact that she should just be herself, since she would not want to go to a school that did not accept the "real" her. I am open to getting a tutor to work with her, but it is really late for that, and I don't know any tutors. To make it all worse, DH is on her case to finish, and thinks it is my fault that she isn't done. Any suggestions?
