A poor man who dreams of being a writer wrote a book and searched for a publisher.
Those who were searching for big fish didn't mind that new legend.
But someone from the predators who searched the wandering writers seeking publishers turned face to him happily like a messiah giving the shelter of peace offering their great service to realize his dreams to become an author of a bestseller.
"Yes, we can make you a writer fulfilling your dream to be a published author." The Messiah said.
"Finally, I met the Savior who can show me the path of victory." The author happily said to himself.
The savior asked him to submit his great creation for evaluation.
The author submitted the manuscript.
And soon, the author got a reply in a bullet speed admiring his book. The Messiah said,
"Indeed, this would be a great piece that going to stir the world gigantically. Definitely, you would be the next Sydney Sheldon...!"
The dreams of the poor creator rose to the sky, the dreams of fame and money thrilled his veins.
The colorful visions flashed in his mind.
Hundreds of fans…, book promotion tours around the world.., television & movie contracts....!
He heard the noise of the producers coming from Hollywood and the showering dollars.
When the author was submerged in the sensation of dreams, The Messiah continued.
"We are going to publish your book. Yes, we have decided. Because your book is a great piece..! In this deal, you will get 100% royalty. All the profits are for you. Our mission is to make you a writer of a bestseller that goes to conquer the world. We will do the entire work in the publishing process. You don't need to do anything. You just direct us with your great ideas and contribute a little money to the cost of publication. We will bear the major part of the publishing cost. You are a man of great skill, an emerging talent, yes, I have smelled it, my dear."
Like a voice of prophecy, the innocent creator believed the words of the Messiah and arranged the payment, a few thousand, by selling and borrowing.
The book was published, and it appeared in online stores like a glazing star. The author received 500 printed copies as the Messiah promised.
"Yes, now I am a published author…!" The author said happily flipping the pages of his great piece.
He waited impatiently to see the performance of his baby.
The time that doesn't have dreams and hopes, passed swiftly as the day and night without noticing anybody, anything.
In the flow of the time with light and darkness, the author sat vigilantly opening his eyes to see the great performance of his baby.
But, no noise was heard from the arena other than the mocking of the time…!
"You have buried your book on the online store along with other millions. What do you expect from this burial ground other than the silent mourning of your baby…? No Messiah will come to save your book. Just go the street and sell it by your hand promoting with your voice of hopes and dreams to be a writer." The time advised to the author.
The poor writer was anxiously waiting for an order for his great piece. But nothing happened as he dreamed and hopped.
No waves of sale raised, no noise of excitement heard.
The silence of disappointment rounded him. The poor writer sadly looked at his books of great creation. He saw the 500 copies lying on the table staring ferociously and funny at him like the refugees who have no shelter.
During that time of fun and fear, the writer didn't receive any gospels from the Messiah who appeared with prophecy to make him a writer.
The Messiah was busy with his prophecy to bless the other wandering writers who were seeking salvation by becoming published authors..!
When the dreams, the dream of the bestseller, started to burn, the author commenced the promotion by offering discounts like 20%, 30%, 50%, 85%, and finally 95%.
But, neither the tempest of sale roared nor the earthquake created by the thrilling readers took place around him. He found his baby sleeping well in the burial ground.
The day and night passed happily without minding the emotions of the dreamers who want to realize their dreams.
At last, the writer wished to get at least one reader for his bestseller as a reward for his efforts and dreams, so he promoted the book as a gift.
But, no movements, no reader, no demands for the book, no eyes found interest in his baby..!
One day the Messiah called the author.
He comforted the author who was mourning the tragedy of his bestseller and said in a voice of peace.
"Don't worry my dear, every writer who made history had these scenes of disappointment. This darkness of disappointment will lead you to the light of victory. And, understand that this is not the problem with your writing. I know your piece is eminent. This is the problem of marketing. Marketing is a war that creates sales. But, as it is an art, it needs to be done creatively. I will help you to make that war which will bring your book up by making significant reviews about your book. I have a team of experts who can create wonder in the promotion. They will promote your book globally by posting stunning reviews on hundreds of popular sites including the major social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, etc., and your book will go up like a rocket." He laughed.
"How much do you want to create such a war..?" The author smelled the intention of the Messiah.
"Nothing more, only a few thousand, then, the rest will be the flood of sales..! How is this offer? Sounds good?"
The writer made a sigh, the sigh of a loser.
"Believe me, if I can get the Antichrist you are, I would have crushed your balls." The author shouted.
The Messiah laughed enjoying the anger of the author.
And later, the Messiah sent an angel to the author with some revelations.
The author received a call from the angel.
"Hi, I am Angel, a well-wisher who supports the struggling writers."
"Yeah."
"I conduct an online course about writing a bestseller in a week. In this course, I reveal the tactics to make writing great with an enchanted new form of literary magic that can attract readers.

"Is that thrilling trick is tits?"
"Yes, tits and clits are gospels of the fiction. But, not only these, there are hundreds of words and idioms that are capable of making a fire in the veins of the readers.

"Get lost." He shouted at the angel in reply.
The author took one of the books of his great creation in hand.
He heard the laughing of his bestseller.
He joined in that fun for a few seconds with a loud laugh and he asked himself.
"What is this laughing for…?"
"To celebrate the great performance of a bestseller." He heard an answer in his mind.
"Now this is the time to move to find out another thrilling story of life." He said and stepped out seeking a job to settle the debt made by his bestseller.
"In this world, everybody is a writer, because life itself is a great thrilling story. So writing a story is not a big deal, but selling it will be a task that will create a stunning story."
The author comforted him and walked on.
