In 2008 I did a creative writing class for people with mental illnesses (I have schizo-affective disorder) Here is the short (true) story I wrote: > **[True story - trying to cheat at the game of life](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=711833)** > > This is a true story about experiences I have had with mental illness. I’m looking for feedback including feedback about the kind of supernatural realm I believed in. Cheating in the Game of Life - A True Story... I also wrote a lot of poems - here is one: > [@](#): > > Starting school, > I stole a Lego ladder. > A year or two later, > I stole a Lego man’s hairpiece. > From an acquaintance, > I stole two Lego pipes. > From a friend, > I stole a Transformer, > But got caught. > Another time, from that friend, > I stole some coloured paper clips, > But got caught. > At school, > I stole four Lego gears, > With the encouragement of a friend. > I treasure my stolen toys. There was a launch of the combined book and other books such as my short story and there I read aloud that poem and people were quite amused. ---

When I was 11, I was at home “babysitting” my 9-year-old sister. In the way only young kids can be, I was a bit of a shitlord. She asked me if I could make her a bologna sandwich. I made her eat a rolled-up piece of bologna with mustard inside it, instead. Then I felt really bad and made her a sandwich anyway. Boy, it felt good to get that off my chest! ---
