Love Chekhov. I teach "The Bet" every year.
What's the last/best book you read?

One of my favorite reads is "The Mist" by Stephen King. I would LOVE it if he wrote a full book/novel on that storyline. It is a fantastic story. Not the botched ending added to the movie for dramatical purposes. In the book the Mist is still in full force so anything could happen...
What an amazing ****ing coincidence. I just finished editing a script based on Chekov's 'The Bet' for a screenwriter friend.
Wes, what grade level/subject(s) do you teach?

King is always great, but I think he's at his finest with his short stories and novellas. In Full Dark No Stars the first novella is one of the eeriest and best things I've ever read. He even gives a shout out to Ogden UT in it.
Is he the one that wrote about that oil slick in a lake up in the mountains that eats people? That was creepy.

Middle School, LA.
I respect people who can teach kids that age without going totally insane.
So can you confirm whether they can actually spell and properly construct a sentence .. outside of social networking, that is?
Not sure I know where this places Wes on your respectitude.
