A Little Boy Dreams of a Successful Writing Career

Sometimes we write the jokes and sometimes jokes are written about writers.

Once upon a time, a boy dreamed about becoming a famous writer one day with lots of devoted readers.

He shared his dream with his teacher and she asked him what he intended to write about.

His reply to her, “I want to write about things the entire world will be reading and that will tug at their emotions so hard that they will cry, scream, bang their heads, and maybe even upend a table, or toss a laptop across the room in response to reading something I wrote.”


Did this boy grow up and live out his dream to be a famous writer?

You decide. He now spends his days writing computer and web error messages for Microsoft.
