It was a bludge because there was a rule that if you forgot to bring your pencil, you weren’t allowed to make anything—a bizarre kind of reverse pen license. I spent the lessons participating in competitions of endurance with the other pencilless bludgers. We squeezed our limbs in vises and sandpapered each others’ arms. It was important to prove who was the toughest, the most stoic and unyielding. Later I sat at my desk, grimacing as a pearly, orange-pink liquid seeped from my skin. I’m not sure why we were so obsessed with these challenges.' (Editorial introduction) 2022 pg. 44-48
