More than meets the eye

Human beings are such wonderful topics to talk about. Random strangers on the streets that pass by you without a second thought: You do not know them, and the chance that you will ever get ot know them is pretty low (for random strangers) However, once you know the person, you find out they have an interesting story, a surprising, extraordinary , unlucky, or something you hadnt expected. Well, it was our bonus assignment to research more about O. Henry, the all time famous author loved by the world. O. Henry, who is famous for his short stories, have had quite a life. He was weak, and his health was bad. He was in a prison for a while, for taking other's money/ property. He had many jobs, including journalist, pharmcist, and a draftsman and a quite a few more. Don't normal people, after reading a book, simply judge the author, on whether his/her book was easy to read or not, interesting or not and just toss it aside? Dont normal people not even care about the name of the author? However, when we find out their stories, we find out, they are special individuals, with special stories, and what things inspired them to become authors. We find out, they are not just boring people with a glutton of SAT vocabularies in their heads, who sit around writing pages and pages on word. We find out, they are very special people, who are very profound, and their stories, not the ones they write, are more fascinating. I told you, more than meets the eye, definitely. Dont judge a book by its cover, right?
