[at the bulletin board outside the mess hall, there is a tall blond tacking up a flyer..... and then snorting and ripping it down. because it's sort of silly to advertise reading lessons in a manner that would require you to be able to read

...that's not a bad idea.

[write_it_in]

Writing lessons never get many bites, and I've seen kids running around.

[bulletwthmyname]

Writing lessons as in the craft, or writing lessons as in basic communication? I can see why the latter would be tricky, since I don't know that I write in the same language you do.

[write_it_in]

Creative writing.

[bumpetysplat]

Do you think it would help my English?

[write_it_in]

...reading isn't vocabulary. I can do that, too.

[bumpetysplat]

Couldn't I just read a dictionary, for vocabulary?

[write_it_in]

You could, in theory, but it wouldn't teach you things like context.

[omnicomments]

That's quite pathetic.

[write_it_in]

Thanks for the input.

[omnicomments]

Surely everyone here can read.

[write_it_in]

Or not.

[songtoallmy]

I wasn't aware you taught.

[write_it_in]

Blame camp. I'm supposed to be teaching creative writing.

[songtoallmy]

That's right, you're a novelist, yes?

[write_it_in]

Yes. I'd rather teach writing, if you were interested in lessons.

[but_a_wolf]

That's retarded.

[write_it_in]

Why's that?

[but_a_wolf]

What are you going to do? Teach them the alphabet?

[write_it_in]

That's a good start.
