Dear Mr. Hagerty,

As a proud citizen of my community, I believe that there are heroes amongst us all and they are just hiding behind their true self. The reason is that they are too scared to stand up for what they believe in or what they believe needs to be done, in order to create unity. And, that is why I am writing the publisher because I want to try and convince our community that heroes are all around the world and show their powers in different ways. Ohhh… and I’m not talking about NO ordinary superheroes that have all these magical powers; I’m talking about the heroes that simple just uses pure wisdom to influence the ones around them. This story will show the world that there are heroes out there in all different shapes and sizes.

And, as far as the story goes, here are the ideas behind my story, so here we go:

Way up high in the majestical forests, in the mountain of Emei, in China lives the Somaki people, who had the most inspirational/wise man that ever set foot on the lands called Mr. Morrison. For the people call their village the Spiritual Oracle because of Mr. Morrison; who takes on the form of a monk because of his vibrant white beard and bald head, the fact that he wears glasses and is as short (5’2 to be exact), his face looks as though it is wrinkled in certain areas giving him the effect of audacity allowing him to have the appearance of wisdom. He looks as though he is homeless, but don’t let this fool the reader because even though the cloths are tore up and dirty, he believes these clothes are what gave him the wisdom/ inspirational powers, so he has never changed them; and, even though the clothes are tattered the orange and yellow within the fabric stick out like a sore thumb. He also uses a wood cane that is made from ancient wood that shows he is older then anyone could ever imagine or even understand. He is a man that has been coming to this village for centuries in order to comfort the villagers by giving his wisdom and inspiration. But the people of the village wonder why he even uses a cane because he holds himself high with confidence and if the readers think about it he resembles and elephant; because have you ever seen a weak elephant?! Last but not least, he is a man that walks with the most powerful walk, that ever time he takes a step it is as though the persons can feel the presence of his soul.

So if the reader really thinks about it, they could say this mountain is unique, not only because of Mr. Morrison, but also because there could be a blizzard going at the bottom of the mountain, while all is calm and peaceful on the top. It also lets off this mystical light every time Mr. Morrison appears, on his yearly visit for three to four day to give the people of the village his wisdom and inspiration. Also, just keep in mind this is an ancient city and nobody really knows what it is, or where exactly it’s located. For all they know, is that the Somaki people are located within the shadows of the forest up on the mountain top, but still they wonder if this is all a myth. The reason people believe this is because of the fact that every time they went up to explore this mountain, they could never even come across the tiniest part of evidence to show that people can even live up there. The thing is that the Somaki people are just so advanced that they are able to camouflage everything including, themselves.

But, all isn’t happy in the village of the Somaki people because they are freaking out for the shear fact that Mr. Morrison didn’t show up on time for his yearly visit. Therefore, the Somaki people are becoming very depressed because they can’t receive the inspiration or words of wisdom in which Mr. Morrison gives. But, the thing is, the villagers don’t realize that Mr. Morrison is deathly sick because the people of the village have been creating havoc amongst themselves. So it is causing Mr. Morrison to lose his power because he cannot live forever unless the Somaki people continue on the road towards unity.

And, as the publisher can see, this is a story that will show kids or even adults that there are heroes located everywhere in the world, and if you try hard enough, one can find his true hero. To me, a hero is someone that doesn’t have all those magical powers, but instead they are normal people in the world, that are maybe stronger then yourself or really good at giving advise; therefore, normal people are what makes the world turn round and keep everything from falling apart. So if the publisher likes my story, please contact me at, cain@cainsalas.com, because I would love to show the world that not every hero has to have some unexplainable magical power to be become a hero in someone’s eyes.

Sincerely,
Cain Salas
