“These kids are really smart. You develop attachments to them. Even the funny, crazy kids. One kid wanted to show me something on a computer. He wasn’t even my student, but he came up to me and gave me a flash drive. I took it home, and it was loaded with pornography. I said to myself, “Oh my God, I’m going to end up on the cover of the New York Post.” So I wiped it clean and gave it back to him the next day. I said, “I don’t even know what was on it. It was full of viruses.” He looked like I killed his dog. “Mister, you deleted my porn? I spent all day at the library downloading that.”
“This year, I will
stop making lists of things
I cannot possibly hope to achieve,
or even want to undertake.
But I will write a new list
if I don’t have the
courage, sense, or wisdom,
to follow this one.”
A good starting point for trying to get back into getting back into novels.
