Answer» Jenkins wanted a ghost story from John Hallock for his magazine. John chased the inspiration but in vain. He was finding it difficult to dig up a story. He sat down before his desk and waited, but nothing happened. His mind began to ‘wander off on other unghostly and material things’. In despair he burst out, “This writing business is delightful, isn’t it?” These sarcastic words reveal his utter helplessness. |
