The Rushed Novel

At first, I REALLY WAS going to write an actual quick novel & publish it, but I feared backlash or no one wanting to read it. I was going to put it up on Amazon Kindle, & NOT Kindle Unlimited, this time, since Star Bricker (gang stalker extraordinaire) likes to write false bad reviews on all of my ebooks, on every platform there is. Instead, I'm just going to make this a short story about a fictional character rushing a quick, unedited novel & becoming an instant success.

_________________________________________________

Akuba Nyarko, a Ghanian immigrant to New York City, settled in Flushing, Queens. She decided that she didn't like it there. She wanted to live in someplace quiet with less population density. She decided to move to Lexington, Kentucky. She bought some farmland. She figured that living that way would be somewhat similar to how she grew up. She wasn't used to constant noise & chaos. She wanted some quiet time to reflect & write. 

Akuba built her own small home all by herself, with no help. She feared that the house would fall apart. Luckily, it never did. Even in the worst of weather. She didn't ask for too much. She didn't want too much. She just wanted to live a simplistic lifestyle. 

She began to feel homesick, so she kept a notebook & started journaling her feelings. She would always pray to God that her family back in Ghana is OK. She read her Bible daily. 

One day, she went shopping for some fruit & vegetable gardening seeds to plant. She saw an interstate billboard ad from a publishing company that was advertising a writing contest. The deadline was in 3 days. She panicked. She REALLY wanted to win that book deal. She wished she had found out about it sooner. 

She panicked & rushed to Walmart during the lucky time of cheap school supply sales in late July. She thought she was going crazy. She bought 25 (5-subject notebooks) & 25 packs of colorful pens. She rushed home & wrote basically a rough draft of a fictional novel about Ashanti slaves being used by Akan for gold trading. 

Lo & behold, she was set to return back to Ghana 6 months later; & right before she moved out of her self-built Kentucky home, she received a letter in the mail for a $100,000 prize for 1st place winner + a book deal offer. She was stunned because she doubted herself & quickly lost hope, even though she thought it was worth a try. She postponed her Ghana trip to a later date.

The writing company thought that she wrote so well that they thought that what Akuba thought was a poorly written, rushed rough draft was the finest piece of polished writing that they ever came across. Now, her face has become attached to the billboard advertisements for the next round of writing contests. She was very shy when people came to her for writing advice. She was all over the news & the internet & became a viral sensation all over social media. She explained that it was by the grace of God & just pure, unexpected luck.
