My sleep late last night was interrupted by a trunk call from
Nicole Richie. She told me to stop using her dad’s song title “say
you say me”, I mean, father (the word is longer than dad){you see,
how I increase the price of my book, I use the longest synonym of a
shorter word. {How I wish Lionel Richie is the great, great
grandfather of Nicole Richie.} Thereafter, I explain. The more I
explain the more words I use. The more money I can make from the
book. Sometimes, you end up confusing the reader, and then they
will buy your second book to try to find out the answer. When the
readers finish reading the third book, the answer is not yet
reveal. Eagerly, the avid readers waited for the fourth book. With
panted breath, they waited for the fifth book. I believe that is
how the renowned writers from 1 short story become a series.
Actually, all the books are already in the store room. In order to
jack up the value of the book, the writer slowly releases so that
there will be long queues. Human nature is like that when there is
a demand, everybody will rush to it. But if there is no demand,
people will shun it. Therefore, frequently you will see people
joining the queue without knowing what they are going into.
Thereafter, they will purchase what the person before them bought
(it does not matter they know how to read or not). To them, they
feel that if everyone is buying and I do not buy then I may be left
out. Wow, I have finished a long paragraph without even explaining
what I want to say. Sometimes you have to learn how the successful
writers do it. If I want to be as rich as them, I should use at
least 4 chapters to beat around the bush, another 3 chapters go
around trees and 5 chapters to trap the readers in the forest. But
I am just a L-plate writer; I haven’t master one/zillion of their
skill yet. (Actually I wanted to say one/tenth but the word is
shorter). I wonder if it is better for me to sell page by page.
Would it cause a greater stir and make me a bigger sensation than
John Ronald Reul Tolkien, Lord of the Rings, an epic high fantasy
novelist (To tell you the truth, I wanted to use J.K. Rowling but
the name is too short. However , by explaining, I am able to
lengthen considerably.
