I'm not sure how I'll be able to do this in something other than novel form, but I'd prefer to keep this a short story... We'll be looking into the speaker's life later on, and we'll see the effects his experience has had on him psychologically. I'm looking forward to writing something a little easier to understand. I'm also looking forward to hearing what acapella and earthman think of it.

You're right. Tough idea to sell in a short piece. Not impossible but tough. So... write the novel. C'mon, it's not like you're doing anything else, right? :D Just kidding. A novel is a major time committment and with college and all, that's an awful lot to put on your plate.

I really like the idea of believing because we 'must' believe. How very Nietzsche of you hehe...And here I thought you were more a fan of the Irish Modernists and here you are going down the path of those merry German "existentialist" philosophers (I'm just kidding, you know that...) I like the start and I am looking forward to seeing more.

Oh yeah, what happened with 'Thomas'? Did you send him out? Your fans eagerly await news.
