A story within a story

Once there was a man who wanted to be an author. He wanted to write interesting stories for people to read and enjoy.

He sat down one day at his computer and wrote a story entitled "A Story Within a Story." It was quite a hit, and everyone he showed it to loved it. The man decided to publish his story. After he did this, it blew up and he received much praise.

After years of collecting money from book sales, the man became very wealthy. He gained so much wealth in fact, that he gained a new sense, the true sixth sense. With this sense he began to realize the meaning of life, as well as many other things unknown to humans at that time. The man soon realized that what he thought to be reality, was really a figment of another's imagination. He came to find that his wealth actually came from the imagination of an author who chose to write about the man. This was the only reason for the man's existence. He became sad and decided to write another story. This story would be about himself.
