About this ebook
The Legend of the Demon Writer is a controversial tale for it is also based on a real and existing life of a human writer who dedicated himself to the craft of writing. Not only that, but the principles and philosophy of this legend can be applied by any writer in the passionate pursuit of their craft.
According to legend, a writer once dedicated his whole life to the craft of writing. It was not a mere dedication as most people understand the word dedication, but this writer went beyond the usual boundaries earning him the title of the Demon Writer.
But what exactly has made this man a legend? He wrote thousands of words every day on various subjects and styles. He wrote day and night, summer and winter, and all the days of his life.
He did not earn any credit to himself as he wrote all his books under various pen names believing that each pen name is his alter ego. He did not write for fame or money, but he did what he did simply because he loved the art --- the art of writing.
He was a writing demon, so they say, but it is said that his writing taught about love and kindness, spirituality, and a hope for creating a better world. Some of the classic works we know today are said to come from this so-called Demon Writer.
I am not sure if he really deserves to be called a Demon for he seemed more like an angel to me, but that is the title he has been known, and something that speaks volumes about the man --- it shows not that he was ever evil, but that he was mad about writing almost to the point of insanity. He wrote and wrote regardless of how his works would be viewed by the world.
Some of his works have survived the modern time, but we simply could not identify with sufficient accuracy which works rightly belong to him.
The period when the Demon Writer existed is also difficult to trace, except that there are traces that he, indeed, once walked the Earth.
It is also worth noting that the Demon Writer would sometimes write about Jesus and Mary, and therefore, it is believed that he existed well after the time of Jesus.
In one of the alleged writings attributed to the Demon Writer, he confessed that he is a follower of Jesus but denies any association with any established religion.
Indeed, the title Demon Writer might be too harsh a name for someone who has written about goodness and love, but it should be clarified that the term Demon refers to his utmost dedication to the craft of writing. He wrote like a madman, almost to insanity. He wrote his heart and soul to a world that was also losing its sanity. He was brilliant; he was crazy; he was demonic; he was divine. He is the Demon Writer.
