My dad especially has made it perfectly clear he's hoping I'll follow in his footsteps! Both sets," he grumbled. "But John, you've been sketching since you were five!" "Lots of five-year-olds draw and color," John defended. "Besides, it doesn't matter. As far as they're concerned, I was a star reporter before I was even born." He sighed. "I just don't want to be a complete disappointment." Hmm, Clark didn't want to be a farmer, Lois didn't become a Doctor, have they failed to let John know they'll love him whatever field he follows? If you are really dead sticked on this one Quote this has been on my hard-drive, either; maybe 3 years. While this isn't technically angst, it is kind of moody, though. At least I think so, anyway... I guess you could call it FFAW. It's been a WIP for a long time, until I finally decided to just post it as a vignette and see what happens. You might perhaps turn it into a "Challenge" and invite others to work on it? Framework4

And it's touching that she feels a sense of inadequacy or failure at his reaction to her urging. Maybe it just needed to mature properly, like a fine wine. Life isn't a support system for writing. It's the other way around. - Stephen King, from On Writing

I used to draw a lot way back in the day. Like John I drew the same thing over and over again. It was more than a doodle. It was a figure I had mastered--one that I was proud of. But somewhere along the line (college, maybe? high school, perhaps?), I just quit drawing it. I don't know if I could reproduce it if I was paid big money. Anyway, this story had me wistfully remembering those days of youth. Elisabeth
