10-2-88 Dear Jack:

   Isn't it strange how some of us turn out?  I now paint in water-color and oils - and teach private lessons in my studio here at home.   I exhibit in a very good gallery called Art Street in Ft. Walton Beach.   I may someday be the Grand-ma Moses of Mossey Cove!
  This is a far cry from the good old days when all your students at Abraham Lincoln were going to write the great American novel.  (I did write a novel, but it was so closely based on my experience in radio in Sioux City, Iowa and Sioux Falls, S.D. that I never tried for publication - to protect the guilty, I presume.  Doug Wilson writes you are as feisty as ever - (not his words) - glad for that!

Love, Zena
