Did you know that acclaimed 20th century novelist Edgar Rice Burroughs, best known as creator of the feral child Tarzan, originally worked as a pencil sharpener salesman? He took up writing after reading several old Pulp Fiction magazines and discovering that 'people were paid for writing . . . rot.' He wrote more than seventy novels in his lifetime, and apparently planned on writing even more. I don't know about you, but that's how I plan on going when the day comes.
