>A terrible thought occurred to me as I was on my way home that night: was he actually me? Would I become like him? An ex-student drifting around for years taking shifts until it is too late, all the options are gone and this becomes life?
>Would I be stuck there, forty years old, telling the young students who came and went on temping contracts, actually I was going to be a writer? Would you like to read a short story? It was rejected, but that's only because the publishers are so damned conventional and daren't take a chance on someone who takes risks. They wouldn't recognise a genius if they had one stuffed up their jacksies. Look, by pure chance, I happen to have a copy in my bag. Yes, it's about my life and you'll probably recognise the odd detail about the institution I describe, but it's not this one, actually. What was it you were studying again? Philosophy? Yes, I had a sniff at that too. But then I went for literature. I wrote about Joyce, you know. A bit about intertextuality and the like. I was told it was brilliant. But I don't know. Feels a bit date din some ways, yet there's something universal about literature which... well, shines through its epoch. But take it and tell me what you think during the shift tomorrow, OK?
