I don’t know who my vote is going to yet, but I’m on a Bill Faulkner chapter at the moment, so I might actually have to go with him.

And Lori - Rhymes with Schmenson. Also, she is the one who convinced me to major in English.

You know I have to go with Billy on this. But only because he’s my secret-dead-author boyfriend, as you well know. I think they’re pretty evenly matched, in all honesty. And Vlad with all the butterflies. Sigh.

I like Faulkner’s quote.

Alfina,
You know who would be so proud of you even conceiving of this cage match? Ms. ‘it’s on the tip of my tongue’ AP english teacher from high school. I can picture her perfectly in my head (preferably with Toni Morrison quote mobiles flying overhead) but for the love I cannot remember her name. B- something. WTF?
You freaking pedagogue you.
