Attention, parents and teachers:

Good advice from an English professor (who happens to be my sister-in-law):

I’ll admit to having more faith in this whole language stuff these days — he will eventually learn to spell [fry] with a “y,” in the meanwhile, if he’s less hung up over spelling and right and wrong, he’s more likely to actually try to write recreationally. If I can get him to like writing first, I can get him to like correct writing later.

This was exactly my approach when I tried (clumsily) to teach creative writing at Mountain T.O.P. Summer Plus.
