  1. (continued from previous page)
    in the morning seems infinitely preferable to work and then I return refreshed to make a further effort.
    There are a few things that I dislike about this job of mine namely; the pay is very bad, and some of my books are not selling well.
    There are a few things also that I like about this job that while working as an author I am creating pleasure to man and when I will have my characters created I will love them to the end,
