“An understandable hunger for potential clients tempts many [career counseling therapists] to overpromise, like creative writing teachers who, out of greed or sentimentality, sometimes imply that all of their students could one day produce worthwhile literature, rather than frankly acknowledging the troubling truth, anathema to a democratic society, that the great writer, like the contented worker, remains an erratic and anomalous event, immune to the methods of factory farming.” WritingSometimesLiteratureCareersCreativeTeacherEventsStudentsProduceOne DayMethodRemainsDemocraticWorkersGreedHungerFactoriesWorthwhileClientsCreative WritingFarmingImmuneTherapistsGreat WritersSentimentalityCounselingDemocratic SocietyFactory FarmingErraticAnathema Author:Alain de Botton
