I remember being so excited about this idea. Tired of writing nonfiction essays for college, I decided in art appreciation class that I would write a fiction piece, imagining a confrontation between Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo, that would be well-researched enough to count as an essay. It didn't turn out as well as I'd hoped and my teacher's critique still stings in my ears -- "That's all they would have said to each other?" In the end, though, he decided he couldn't resist the idea of the piece and I think he gave it an A-.
Past page 2 I had to revert to my handwritten rough draft because those darn dot-matrix print jobs fade so badly!
