Here I Am

Between last night and during my lunch break this afternoon I have somehow managed to write the beginnings of a story that is part Ray Bradbury, part Philip Pullman, and part me. I thought it was going to be a short story, but I’m starting to retool the idea as I progress with the plot.

It is a rather simple story of a father and his daughter with the backdrop of a powerful State that is ruled by a theocracy and tattoos and books happen to be illegal!

Even in draft form I’m really enthusiastic about the dark tones of the backstory.
