I'll steal your words, "Weird. Freaky." And I love it.. So, now, I'm really curious.. does he end up as the main course on the menu? (Hey, you never know.... sometimes the character is killed in a book, show, or movie...)

Nope. It's too early for the hero to die. Below is Ch 2 in all its unedited glory.
"Edited" in this sense means not spell checked or grammatically correct. All attempts are made to present as clean an image as possible of a world gone mad. Naughty words are edited out. Reading this you agree that you will not let the author offend you by way of foul body odor or flesh eatting humans. =) Last edited by jaxx6166; 11-05-2009 at 10:31 PM. |

Nice positive, “There’s a ten in twenty shot we’ve got nothing to worry about.”

I liked that one myself. It was probably one of my better one liners. |

Chapter 10 / Act 2 *Spoiler*
This is supposed to be the big reveal chapter. This is where the hero finds out where he really is. For those that have been following the thread and know the real setting of the story - this one's for you.
I'm not a fan of the info dump, but I figure it comes at around 75+ pages in and maybe would be a good time just to let it out. If you have a better idea for how to present the material, please help! Let me know if the whole scene works or not. Thanks =) Spoiler:

Editing continues slowly. Much slower than I thought it would
I had hoped to have a serviceable arc available to MR as a holiday present to everyone who cared or cheered on those of us that burned midnight oil for Nano. But, that's not happening. If I get super lucky and find time, I may at least have something available by the end of next week....no promises though. |

I may be able to hook you up with your very own Drew. I'd probably have to take him out of the book though, mainly because I don't like him and his deus ex machina.

Bump.
Excerpt posted at first post. I tried to change the title of the thread, but I guess that doesn't work. |
