{"product_id":"five-stories","title":"FIVE STORIES","description":"\u003cp\u003eFive stories from my life about specific occasions when I had a crisis with friends and strangers.    I recall these events happening when I was younger, and want to remember them as time goes on.\u003cbr\u003e\n    Since I was ten, I wanted to be a writer. I got my first story published in the college literary magazine when I was the editor, which was, I figured, the only way I could get an editor to accept one of my pieces. \u003cbr\u003e\n     I have since been published in books, anthologies, magazines and other places, and for the most part, my pay was one free copy of the publication.   \u003cbr\u003e\n     For a short period of time, I was published in the St. Petersburg Times, now called the Tampa Bay Times.  I have these five pieces here, five pieces for which I was paid $200 apiece, so for a short while I could consider myself a professional writer, though I still could not quit my day job.   \u003cbr\u003e\n     Though these pieces were not astounding or earth shaking, they were god enough.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"David Wood","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44217769558177,"sku":"9781111130849","price":21.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0462\/1120\/3233\/files\/1gq256nq-front-shortedge-384.jpg?v=1748413775","url":"https:\/\/bookswholesale.myshopify.com\/products\/five-stories","provider":"BooksWholesale","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
