I was in NY five years ago, and was out at a bar, talking to a guy who worked at Vogue, telling him that I was a teacher and describing the school I worked at when he told me to shut up in the middle of the conversation. I looked at him, taken aback. And he said, "stop talking, and start writing. There's a story here." So, that's what I did.

Read "Teaching Frankenstein". I hope you continue to write. You have real talent. Your descriptions of the interactions of your characters reminds me of "Catch 22". There is a gift in a writer who can write dialog and humor as you do. You may have intended to write a descriptive piece, but maybe Heller thought he was writing a history?
