The One With The Great Glass Elevator

Once a long, long time ago, I was browsing through a children’s book section in a second-hand book store with my friend, Hazel. She mentioned a guy named Roald Dahl. She said she had read most of his books when she was a kid and by the way she talked, I assumed Mr. Dahl was a prominent and great author.

Now I was then totally unfamiliar with the guy so I just nodded along, all the while making a mental check to read one of his books.

Then a few months later I bought a copy of “Charlie and The Great Glass Elevator.”

Did I enjoy reading it? You bet. I enjoyed it so much that I immediately tried my hand on writing a great story similar to Mr. Dahl’s classics.

Was I successful?

No. Or as I would love to say, not yet. Who knows, right?
