Anyway, I have made some contacts at uni and hassled one of them to send one of my manuscripts to a professional editor. My outlook would probably be to self publish perhaps, or even convert to an E-book. The manuscipt is a childrens novel with the working title "Finnyston Ballyhouston". I won't give away the plot, but the themes are abandonment, revenge, love and betrayel. It might not sound too much like something you want your kids to read, but I aim to tackle serious pertinant issues head on. Issues that do truly reflect the society we live in and have defined our age.I hope its content scares the sh1t out of the establishment! This aint no fairy tale.
The sub plots revolve around drugs, alcohol, abuse and social peer pressures involving a tight group of friends from varying backgrounds. I would aim to educate more than anything and stimulate discussion away from the discourse presented to us all through corrupt media.
I will post its progress and hope that anyone reading it gives it to their kids. It might bomb but I don't really care....its now on paper forever. As long as it provokes any reaction, my job is done.
One last thing; if I get published it will be under a pen name. No not Boz. Or my real name. This part was the biggest laugh of the while process, the wife and me thinking of one and deciding on it. I don't want to get bogged down by fame after all
