Just thought about my 9th and 10th grade English teacher today.
>He wrote an incredibly cliché and poorly written mystery novel
>he had to move back in with his parents in his 40s to write it
>he had to self publish it through amazon since no one would touch it
>he had to get his family to leave 5 star reviews on it
>he tried to push the book on his students
>we read the book in the same way people watch the Room.
>it was so bad and he said it was his magnum opus.
I used to make fun of him and his terrible writing. I realize now he’s a testament to how we can’t all make it.

There are several types of author
The talentless failure, ala Brain Griffin
The Amazon top sellers who care more about money
And the artists recognized after death
Which are you anon

I had a bulldyke teacher who did the same. I remember this big titted girl in that health class w larger than double d's who had a cut mark on her right tit bc she hated having them..I threw ice cubes and pieces of paper in her cleavage sometimes.
Well the Bulldyke teacher got fired for being on drugs or something and popping the principal's tires bc the principal said something to her and embarrased he in front of us. She honestly should have been fired sooner...
