Masters In Writing Fails To Create Master Of Writing

PALO ALTO, CA—Despite completing all the requirements for a Masters of Fine Arts in creative writing from Stanford University in January, Jeremy Craig Kessler somehow failed to become a master of creative writing, sources reported Monday. “Mr. Kessler’s short stories, all written in the style of T.C. Boyle, show little more than excellence in spelling and grammar,” said literary agent David Conrad. “Somehow, Kessler advanced to the very highest level of the academic program and has only an average body of work to show for it.” Photocopies of Kessler’s short-story collection can be purchased at jckessler.com.
