I’m a stay-at-home mom (former English major) who found a copy of The Sun in the magazine rack at our local YMCA. I can’t get the image of Jerry Stern’s bluish thumb out of my mind.
When I read beautiful narrative prose, I feel tempted to quit writing, because I doubt I’ll ever “get there,” but I’ll also never grow if I quit.
Thanks for writing The Wizard in the Closet. I so envy your experience with such a mentor.
