I went to the other house to dig some relics out there and found my old, old PC, still kicking, and with all of my manuscripts intact. Had to use to a diskette to get them out. Good find, good find.
Anyway, one of the manuscripts, was probably written when I was in the sixth grade. I'm surprised to find it finish at 160k words. And basically it's about a man trying to cope with the murder of his family, even though years has already passed. He empties his bank and drives along the coast and the story ends when he made a full circle, realizing his life is still incomplete, so he heads back to one of the towns he passed by and accepted the love of a woman he met there.
It's like Quantum Leap, only the MC is jumping from one town to the next instead of different time lines. Helping solve the town's problem. The MC's own problem is just moving on, and he can't get revenge because the murderer was already killed in a police shootout prior to the start of the story.
I don't know what my grandma made me smoke at that time to get me write this kind of story. All the rest were monster horrors... and um, one monster erotica... damn hentai.
Anyway, I'm thinking of cutting the town-to-town thing and focus more on the roadtrip and finding a single town where the bulk of the story will take place. Any other suggestions?
Thanks in advance
