About five months ago I got an idea for a story. I wasn't sure how long I was gonna make it, I just knew I wanted to write it. Anyways, I wrote the first chapter and got sort of sidetracked by life, so I abandoned it. Today I was clawing my brains out trying to write something, ANYTHING, and I remembered the story, so I think I'm gonna oick it back up again and turn it into a novel/novella. It's about a teenage girl who lives in a trailer park who was impregnated and abandoned by her last boyfriend, and now lives with her mom who takes care of the baby while the girl goes to work at a Wal-Mart. There is obviously going to be more to it than that, involving the relationship between the girl and her mother, the girl and a new love interest, etc etc. All together like this, it kinda sounds really utterly depressing....I promise it won't be though!!
Anyways, thoughts on this? I mostly just put this here so I would have it in my mind all the while I write it. |

| I think it sounds good and I'd like to hear more of the plot. Would the father of the child be featuring in it much? And how old is the girl? |

| The girl is going to be areound 17-18. And the father...well he's going to play an interesting role in the story, let's say. |

| Oh, I would totally read it--especially if it were funny and slightly cynical. Anything that takes a deeper look at Wal Mart would totally get my vote. XD Tell me if you get to work on it! |

I would definetely read it, it sounds just like what I read and write.
I'd love it if yoou could tell me when you start putting it up, because I'd really love to read it. |
