I have this notion that one day, long after I’m dead, I’m
going to be famous. High school English exam papers will have questions like:
Contrast and compare
JJ Beazley’s short stories When the Waves Call and A Fairy Tale of Philadelphia.
They’re both about a man meeting a woman in a bar, you see.
And it’s raining outside in both stories. There has to be a deeper connection between
them, but I’m blowed if I know what it is. Hopefully, the monstrous army of
academics will have invented several by then, to vindicate my reputation.
That is how it works, isn’t it?

Would you care ? People perceive others differently even while still alive. And I am sure that within my limitation of information etc. I don't see the all true pictures.
(interesting I got 'preys' for word verification)
No problem, Mei-shan. I was only joking.
