I think part of Franny's inability to Properly Write had to do with her
eventual dislike of Lane and the Section Men.

All I can say is I sure understand being told by a woman not to "analyze
everything," and wouldn't change Franny's letter for the world...

I really don't understand that there's a tension between Franny in Franny and
the same character in Zooey. It seems like the first story sets the second
up quite well.

The real difference about the story is that they're about two different
characters.

Do we know from Salinger's other fiction that Buddy was supposed to be the
author of F and Z?
