The Best Selling Novelist
I will write a best-selling novel he says.
Sounds wonderful I encourage him. Have you started it yet?
Not on a Tuesday.
What is it about?
I don't know yet.
Will it be fact or fiction?
He gives me a weird smile. Unsure at this time.
Do you plan to use reference books?
I don't know.
Will it be about people?
I doubt it. I don't like people.
Except writers. I really like writers.
We have had a similar conversation for over forty-years.
He has not started it yet.
"But it will be a best-selling novel when I do," he tells me.
