From around the age of ten I wanted to be an artist so I applied for a correspondence course but didn't meet the minimum age requirement. A year or two later I could officially enrol and having taken the tests they sent me the info but more importantly, the price, which my dad didn't want to pay. That was that.
Apart from drawing, writing was my other passion. I'd write sci-fi stories in a lined pad in the living-room, with my family watching the telly. What powers of concentration I must have had in those days! No correspondence school attempt in that regard though.
I wonder how I'd have fared with the Famous Writers School. The only member who's name I recognise is Rod Serling, creator of The Twilight Zone. I don't think they were open to concrete poetry.
The ad was on the back of this magazine.
