One of my students showed me the printed copy of the book Doug, a Doug Doug Story, by Douglas Scott Wrenden. It is 230 pages of just the word “Doug” printed again and again. It has sold 19 million copies worldwide.
My novel is a well-crafted narrative that blends Welsh myth and language into a beautiful story of magic and family loyalty. It has sold maybe 40 copies total.
I will be spending the rest of my day at the local bar, re-evaluating my sanity, thank you.
