M: I didn’t see you in creative writing class today. What happened?
W: Oh, [5] just a dentist appointment. That’s all. Say, did we get a new assignment for next week?
M: Yeah. A really interesting one, actually. [6-1] We’re supposed to write a short story that has some sort of limitation or, or, constraints imposed on it.
W: What do you mean? Like rhyming in a poem?
M: Well, that’ll be an idea. [6-2] But what we write has to be prose, like prose poetry. Just to make rhyme in a poem is too easy, I guess. I think Prof. Eliot really wants to challenge us, to put our creativity to the test.
W: Well, did she give any hints about what she has in mind?
M: Not really, [7] but I may have an idea of the kind of thing she’s looking for. I just finished a really strange book by some French guy. He wrote a whole book without even using a single e.
W: A whole book without a single e? How’s it possible? But, wait a minute. I didn’t know you can read French.
M: I can’t. I read the English translation. But get this. There’s not one e in that either.
W: No way. Think of the words you couldn’t use.
M: I know, but that translator manages it. I got the book at home if you want to check out for yourself. [8] What’s really amazing to me is that leaving e in French is no easy job and doing it in English is gonna involve a complete different group of words. It’s a real work of mind.
W: Sometime you have to show me that book. But right now I’d better get going on the writing for next week.
