From Bibi to Empire

I work. I sleep. I waken. I am still out of work. And then one day I work, I sleep and I dream.

I am inundated with work, all those jobs I had bid for and forgotten about have come through. Even that agent who had pretended not to have received my e-mail submission has written back to say he would love to try and get my novel published. I am so busy, I start to confuse my children’s names. I am starting to make a name for myself. People start to seek me out. They offer me projects that I have to refuse because I am just too busy. I start another blog, How to Make It as a Freelance Writer, in which I divulge my secrets of success. It is so successful that it spawns another blog, and another. And soon, I have an empire, and I am the one offering people work and jobs through elance and LinkedIn.

I awaken. I check my Inbox. I have just been rejected from a job I had forgotten that I had applied to. And that agent still refuses to acknowledge receipt of my e-mail submission.
