A Writer's Love Story!!

Writing a book and getting it published is just like a love story in a novel or in a real life. 

It starts off on a high when the writer is all excited about penning down the manuscript. It's a rosy-2 picture. First date with the pen and paper and there is nervousness and excitement. The second date as to where to take your girlfriend i.e how to change and twist the plot. 

Now you are on a roller coaster ride. Problems galore, Writers feel a writer's block sometimes. They try to get out of it. They patch up with their book. Some people might try to pull you down just like your love story where jealousy creeps up among the others. You'll somehow compete and complete it. Give your script nice finishing touches just like a boy making repeated efforts to somber the mood of his angry girlfriend.

Then again you make efforts to get it published like two lovers do in order to make everything work in their relationship.

The end is always a tricky one just like a love story. Either after these exhausting exercises you succeed in getting a book published and generate a positive response like a boy bending down on his knee proposing his girl and she cries out loud and says yes

or

your manuscript gets rejected by many publishers. It's like you utter those three words to your girl and in response all you get is " We were always friends. I never thought of you that way". I'm sorry. No explanations as to why your manuscript got rejected. Reasons you can't think of.

or

There's a third possibility too. After you're down and out and try to move on from the initial rejections just like in your love story, a faint ray of hope peeps from the dark clouds and then out of the blues a publisher accepts and acknowledges your hard work just like the girl who rejected you suddenly realizes the importance of you in her life and your love story is back on track again.You are on cloud nine. It all works in your favor. Everything falls in place again. 

MORAL: KEEP WORKING HARD AND ONE DAY YOUR LOVE STORY I.E YOUR FIRST BOOK WILL STAND TALL AFTER FACING ALL THE TEST OF TIMES AND BE REMEMBERED FOREVER.

NO LOVE STORY COMES EASY IN YOUR LIFE. YOU NEED TO WALK ON ROCKY PATCHES IN ORDER TO FIND A SMOOTH ROAD FOR YOURSELF IN LIFE.

THAT'S LOVE EITHER FOR YOUR WORK OR FOR SOMEBODY OR SOMETHING. PURE AND DIVINE AS IT COMES.
