The idea of becoming a writer had come to me off and on since my childhood in Belleville， but it wasn't until my third year in high school that the possibility took hold. Until then I'd been bored with everything associated with English courses. I hated it when the assignments turned out long， lifeless paragraphs that were agony （痛苦） for teachers to read and for me to write.

When our class was assigned to Mr Fleagle for third-year English， I saw another cheerless year when I was buried in some boring subjects. Mr Fleagle had a reputation among students for dullness and inability to inspire the student. He was said to be very formal， strict and excessively prim （古板的）.

I prepared for a fruitless year with Mr Feagle and for a long time was not disappointed. Late in the year we dealt with the informal essay. Mr Fleagle distributed a homework sheet offering us a choice of topics. I took the list home and did nothing until the night before the essay was due. Lying on the sofa， I finally faced up to the unwelcome task， took the list out of my notebook， and scanned it. The topic on which my eye stopped was “The Art of Eating Spaghetti”.

This title produced an extraordinary series of mental images. Vivid memories came flooding back to a night in Belleville when all of us were seated around the supper table—Uncle Allen， my mother， Uncle Charlie， Doris， Uncle Hal—and Aunt Pat served spaghetti for supper. Spaghetti was still a little known foreign dish in those days. Neither Doris nor I had ever eaten spaghetti， and none of the adults had enough experience to be good at it. All the good humor of Uncle Allen's house reawoke in my mind as I recalled the laughing arguments we had that night about the socially respectable method for moving spaghetti from the plate to our mouth.

Suddenly I wanted to write about that， about the warmth and good feeling of it， but I wanted to put it down simply for my own joy， not for Mr Fleagle. The next morning I turned in my tale of the Belleville supper.
