Well I could certainly understand that. I wrote a story about a boy who loved his dog so much he wouldn’t go to school in the morning because he didn’t want to leave his dog. The thing is I don’t really like dogs and I’ve never had a dog in my life. I guess you can say it was kind of fake to write about something I don’t even care about. But it was a fiction story after all. Well I supposeMr.Hirsch didn’t care that it was a fiction story. He gave me my paper back with a fat red C-minus on its heading.
