7. Yeah. Once I offered a "pro bono" visit to an economically challenged school...
...for a teacher friend of mine. The principal wouldn't allow their English students to meet a working author because it might have disrupted the curriculum schedule... (for the packaged curriculum they'd bought).
Said teacher friend since left that school to go teach in another state.
I don't know if I would've made it in public schools -- where I did a lot of my "first writing" -- today or not, either...
