I would like to write a book. I have thought about it for a while, and I know that much. I would like to write a book. What kind of book? A novel, probably...but what about? I'm not sure. They say write about what you know, but what do I know? I'm only 17...not a lot of time under my belt to gain experience. What sort of point could I make? Anybody can come up with a story, but I want a story with meaning. A story that has a strong message to it.
Something worth writing.
So, a genre? Fantasy? I'd want to pour a lifetime's worth of work into it. Not a viable option. Romance is certainly a no-go. Suspense? Drama? Thrills? Chills? Spills! Oh, I don't know. Clancy or King? Whose footsteps will I seek to follow? Or dare I forge my own path through the untamed wilds?
Guess it needs more thought.
Anyway, I received my first two college promotional whatchamacallits in the mail the other day. St. John's and Long Island University. To be honest, it's kind of exciting. I look forward to going to college. I'm certainly shooting for the New York/New England area for my first four years, anyway. Political Science and History. I suppose after that it'll be either Law (most likely), or if I have a change of mood, journalism.
I've just gotta find a way to pay for it all.

if you think you don't have enough life experience to write a book, why not write a 'zine?
