Edgar Rice Burroughs desperately wanted to be a writer, but had run through a long list of miscellaneous jobs: railroad cop, storekeeper, gold prospector, lightbulb peddler, and even patent medicine hawker. One fateful day he was browsing through the classified ads in a pulp fiction magazine and had a revelation. Maybe he wasn't a greater writer, but he could certainly write as badly as those who got published in that magazine. He decided to put his fingers where his brain was and pounded out a manuscript for Tarzan of the Apes.
