For Me, The Past Is Dead. Can't

My Sophomore English Teacher Encouraged Me To Write For The School Paper, And That's What Got Me Started. Suddenly It Struck Me That Being A Writer Could Be A Romantic And Adventurous Position.

But Since Then, Seven Books Later, Almost Everything I've Done Has A Comedic Edge To It.
