Wow, John, that’s quite a story. I hadn’t realized you’d joined us in 11th grade, and the comment about 10th grade made me worry it was about Cranbrook. Thankfully not, although I remember Byron Baker was picked on during Lower School. Not our class’s finest hour. I’m sorry you had a rough time with your stepfather and lost your dad at an early age. Good for you to persevere and achieve your dream of becoming an author and historian. Best, Mike Elledge
Thanks, Mike. I wrote the Trilogy in part to exorcize those demons; it almost worked. You ought to read it, at least Stella's Game, which has a version of Cranbrook in it.
