The revenge of Baba Yaga 

Hi. My name is Baba Yaga. “ Stop,” someone will say. “ Aren't you the
same Baba Yaga from the Russian folklore who ate all... those kids? 
Before you judge me, let me tell you this. First: I am vegetarian. 
Second: I never ate any kids. And third: I am a writer. After years of 
lies and deceptions I decided to come out of the shadow and tell the 
real story of baba Yaga. Here we go. Last month I hit the jackpot. Mr. 
Tumbolino from " Happily ever after" publication house told me that my 
book was accepted. Before I could jump on my broom and tell my sisters 
about the good news, my book come out and climb to N1 ( faster than 
Tenzing and Hillary on their way to the top of the Himalayas) spot on 
the New York best seller list. The next day I woke up and my beautiful 
dream vanished. Awwww! I looked the pile of rejections. " Not in this 
moment", " great story, but not for us”, and so on. You got the 
picture, right? I bet is not pretty. Anywhere I don't surrender too 
easy, so I sat down and wrote a letter to the last publication house, 
where my hope was undressed again. Instead admitting that my Hope is 
naked, I simply wrote: "Dear Mr. Chucky Cheese I want to tell you that 
unfortunately I cant except your rejection notice. I can except so many 
of them. My chicken house is pilled up to the very ceiling and I don't 
have a place to put a needle, not to talk about a rejection note. (I am 
sending you a photograph, so you won't say that I am a liar). I will 
report to your office Monday morning and discuss how to publish my 
story." How did I get in the office of the Mr. Chucky Cheese? To make 
the long story short, I was thrown out of the office like a dethroned 
king out of his castle. Lucky for me I saved myself from the necktie 
party. Is so hard to find a proper tie when you have a bonny neck. 
Well, I said to myself. I can try the next publication house. This one 
sounds promising. How did I get inside? This time I decided to try more 
inconvenient method. Since my butt-chicks were still pink-blue and the 
rest of the colors of the rainbow( I don't know which one because is 
hard to see your butt-chicks without a mirror, you know!) from the last 
dethronement, I come up with something ...special. 

" Who you? " asked me the man on the door. He was on one else but Ivan
the Woodcutter from the Russian Falk story. I was surprise to see him 
here, but was even more surprise because I didn't see his axe. (Don't 
start me on this one, I still have bad dreams about his axe). I didn't 
want to map the floor for the 1001 time (Shahrzad wasn't around anymore 
to save my ass) so I said the true. " I am delivering this box. Your 
boss ordered some shoes." " Ok", he said it and opened it. I could see 
the disappointment on his face. I bet on my old broom that if was a 
pizza, would never get to his boss. " Go." I didn't move even a hair 
but he didn't let me think again. " You heeeer? Goooo." I had to leave. 
Or put even more ice on my butt-chicks. Anywhere I went straight to the 
closest cathedral (in cathedral you have more chance to see Angels) and 
prayed to the all holy spirits of any religions ever existed. I prayed 
the Holly and Molly, Polly and Dolly and forgot whom else and went 
home. What was in the box someone will ask? Was it really a shoe? Of 
cost my friend. I send the editor one old shoe. Why one? Because I am 
stingy. And why old? For a good luck. Inside the box I put a letter 
plus my novel. My letter started like this: " Dear Mr. Lukas 
Paprilukas. Since I got my shoe on your doorstep, let me introduced 
myself properly. My name is Baba Yaga and I am a starving writer. Yes, 
starving I admit because no one wants to publish my stories. Until 
today 38,773 publication houses denied me.  I am not counting the small 
ones. Anywhere I decided to try my luck here..." I don't know what 
happen because I never got an answer. Anywhere I took the other pair 
and sold it to some homeless men for 12 cents, scraped all the 
rejection notices for paper and got myself $ 154.34 cent. “ This is the 
end.” I told myself and decided to end it for good. I bought myself a
