I just finished posting my first story at another web site and have been granted permission to link to it. It's called "Normal"
Normal - Grand58742 For those that don't have a Frugal Squirrels account, it's a free registration. I'd appreciate it if you could take the time to read over it and give me some feedback on here. Grand |

My conservative commonwealth's 232 year old state flag is a direct COC violation. Our founding fathers approved of images of bared breasts...
| GREAT BOOK!!! It was long took me a week to finish But i loved it! I cant help but think this is right around the corner minus the attacks. It just donst seem like it would take much for a financial meltdown and then I would wish i was at the "Dayfield Ranch" Hell i wish i had i place like that anyway. How incredible that would be to wake up everyday in such beauty! |

Gary_P Please don't throw it around on the net in Word just yet. I've got a PDF file I just haven't gotten around to setting up, was kind of taking a break. I'll work on it tonight and see if I can get it ready. ETA: I now have it in PDF version. Those wishing to get a copy, please send a message to me via the site. |

With the world’s economies tangled together like fishing nets, one country could set in motion a series of events which would plunge the world into chaos. One man did... “It is time.” Words that are spoken and the world suddenly changes. Devastating terrorist attacks in the United States and around the world brings about the collapse of society, helped along the way with ambitious politicians, religious fanatics and business leaders. America is no longer what it used to be and the world follows. A group of friends in Colorado have come together to escape the madness sweeping the planet in hopes to survive, but can they change quickly enough to the changing situation? Follow their journey during the Fall as they attempt to make their lives normal again and stand as one against what the world throws their way. |

Just as a reminder, the entire story is posted here on ARFCOM in this thread for those not wishing to register on FS.
