Illustrated stories by H Mikel Feilen For decades I have been drawing a style of art unique in the cartoon world. I call it Brain Disorder art due to the fact that I have epilepsy.

Dance instructors wanted — Will Train! In 1977, I was 22 years old and living in Denver, Colorado. I had just recovered from knee surgery and was out of work. Then, as I looked through the want ads in the newspaper, I saw the phrase “Dance instructors wanted, Will Train!” Almost every dance instructor I know was lured into this industry by those five little words.

Even though it does not sound like a legitimate offer, most people will still say, "Sure! Why not?" I know I would! Especially if I was able to duplicate the action without having to share it. Although, I would have a few questions. Is this legal? How long will it take? If I accidently make $2 million, can I still just give you $500K?
