Poet
As a young man in high school, three things converged which greatly steered me in the direction of writing. The first was that my parents had divorced, and like most kids in that position, I needed an outlet. The second was that, after seeing a shred of promise (or perhaps just taking pity), a few teachers said encouraging things to me about my stories. But the third event was the deal-closer: after reciting a poem in front of a large number of students, a cute girl asked for my phone number. Some other girls came by my house, stood outside my window, called for me, and serenaded me. I was pretty certain that writing was my way to a rockstar lifestyle.
I started an underground newspaper in high school, which landed me in the principal's office more times than I can recall. That paper may have been responsible for getting at least one teacher fired, but I'm a little fuzzy on that. It was hard for a 16 year-old to get in on the gossip in the teacher's lounge.
. I especially enjoyed the latter publication -- I liked thinking that my work was floating around Europe, as people in small cafes perused my words while sipping lattes.
