Once upon a time in what now seems to have been another life, I was a high school English and Creative Writing teacher. For the first 3 years or so, I loved it. It was both challenging and rewarding, though when June rolled around, I often found myself talking and writing like the kids. Summers allowed me to re-charge and I faced each September with enthusiasm.

Then at the end of one summer, I realized that for the first time in my life, I was NOT ready for school to start. That was the beginning of the end.

I really was Johnny's teacher. For 5-1/2 years I taught high school English and Creative Writing in Southern California. This article tells why I wasn't ready for school to begin that fateful September -- and why I had to quit the job I loved.
