I have that book in my wish list... I suppose I should send a copy to the teacher.

I can't get DS to commit a whole CTY summer session to one of their writing courses, and I just can't bring myself to further impact his day with an on-line writing course (especially with that 30+ page discussion going on here right now!).

Irony of ironies is that his current paper discusses the pitfalls of late-night, last-minute cramming. Yet this is exactly what he's being taught. Wait 'til the very last second, crank out a thousand words in an hour or so... and get an A.

Arghh.
