My High-School Haters
Public discourse isn’t what it used to be.
One spring morning, high-school students started tweeting at me.
“@4fishgreenberg, when is the last time you have eaten Bluefin Tuna?”
Another wanted to know about the “most unique places you have been on your studies/fishing trips.” A science teacher had assigned my book Four Fish and found me on social media. She’d had the clever idea that it might be fun for her students to “engage” with a real author online. Because a whole classful of book purchases makes my publisher happy, I dutifully tweeted back.
But then the bad tweets came.
“@4fishgreenberg who the fuck wants to read about fish lol”
