English teacher Sharne Mitchell, 48, has a deeper passion - her magnum opus on
the turbulent inner life of a late-40s woman who educates Wollongong students on
the importance of Shakespeare, Emily Dickinson and Peter Go. . .

I'd read it!

Well, they do say you should write about what you know.

That's why I always write about drugged-up whorish hippies!  cool

What the??
Who wrote this???

They go/went to Smiths Hill. They just mixed up the names of my Principal and one of the Drama teachers and used the personalitites of some of the English and Science teachers.

Well done whoever you are. Top article.

The more I look at that picture, the more it reminds me of the lady who comes in to discuss my 'special needs' kids with me.

Wonder if it's her  cheesy

Let us award her the James Goatpee Nobel Prize for Literature...*

...how about a white South African professor of Literature who teaches at a South African university writing a book about a white South African professor of Literature who teaches at a South African university?
(let us encourage him to write the flattest, dullest prose of all time, to fill his work with cliches, to preach his views on the meaning of literature, to prostrate himself before the Ancients (Thucydides, Socrates, Mark Latham, etc) for all white male characters to be the same gormless, spineless quavering-whisperers, as he is... Then let's compound the travesty by awarding him the Booker and Nobel prizes.)

*Nobel Prize= An award presented by a committee of white-haired whiteys to the most mediocre in several fields. Given in memory of Alfred Nobel, inventor of dynamite. Past winners have included Yassar Arafat (Recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize) And Neils Bohr (For the invention of the Nuclear Bomb) and Robert Sturtevant (for writing The Secret Life of Douglas Manson, and publicising it with a hoax terrorist attack upon Sydney)

Farewell, bipedally symmetrical
