Today is April Fool’s Day, when it becomes customary to pull childish pranks on friends and family before shouting “April Fool!”
Some may find this hard to believe, but I’ve actually outgrown this annual ritual, reducing the number of ways by which I may be caught behaving childishly by one.
No, this isn’t a silly prank or a gag.
Until this morning, I had never heard of the name “J. G. Ballard” before.
But I did know of his work — he wrote the novels Empire of the Sun and Crash, both of which were made into movies.
I try to heed good advice in order to learn from the success of others.
I’ve figured out the “fool” part — I know how to write a book. Six have now been published, and a seventh will come out later this year. The “genius” of knowing how to sell them in mass quantities has thus far eluded me, however.
Much work remains to be done, if I hope to one day become a genius.
