38min | 02/18/2025

Description

“In order to teach, you must be able to truly listen.” M.C. Richards, Centering; in Pottery, Poetry, and the Person.

I Ain’t Drawing Nothin”, Playing Cards in School,” and “Edified by Ellison,” are read by Anthony, Elizabet Morris and Dominic Lomuto. Here, Anthony the nerdy art teacher invites his listeners in to the art room where they can view the lively goings-on there. What does a teacher do when they find themselves in a tough spot? In the tale “I Ain’t Drawing Nothin” a flash of intuition provides a solution.

While in, “Playing Cards in School,” a tough art room situation is resolved by the pure luck of an unusual idea…

In “Edified by Ellison,” Anthony feels bad when he disparages a high school student’s opinion; but thankfully, while browsing in the Strand bookstore, the profound words of an author come to the rescue.
