Introduction

So, here I am, a poor college student with a good idea. The 'poor' part of that is a big factor in this project. Well, so is the 'student' part. It basically means that I'm doing things through a blog because I can't afford to actually do anything spiffy right now, and the 'student' part means give me a little bit of slack in the beginning, I'm still learning. Please, bear with me.

This 'book', as I'm going to call it, has been driving me nuts since 2004, and here I am, 7 years later, finally posting something lucrative. I've toiled with the storyline, changed the characters significantly, and learned a lot more about writing in those 7 years.

I started working on this during this summer (summer of 2011) after having a revelation that can only be compared to playing Oregon Trail on the Mac (we're talking pre-OS 8 Mac), and suddenly waking up to find that you have internet though a fiber optic service.

In other words, I got bored and found that I had the talent to write this at long last.

So here it is. Here's my idea.

I hope this works.
