Autorenporträt
PLACE AND DATE: A school in England, 1940. There were forty or more pupils to a class, because many teachers were required to serve in the armed forces. Teachers often became frazzled! On this particular day, the teacher set the class a writing test of no more than two pages. At that time the author was keen on science fiction. He wrote a story involving a space ship with a human and an android crew, with the inevitable disagreements between the two groups and the consequences. The teacher told the class she thought the story was rubbish with the author being banished to another class. In the other class, the teacher asked for a volunteer to be pen and ink monitor. The author was chosen to do the job which had a lot of influence and power. Black or blue ink, soft or hard nib, the world was the author's oyster... It has been a long time between stories.
