Ok, so, first let me start out with saying the following…meep…
Now let me follow that up with a summary of what I’m going to be contributing here on Avalon’s website. You see, English has always been a passion of mine…Grammar, Punctuation, Spelling…..etc etc. So I’ve started writing a book! And what I’m going to do is share the book with all of you! Now, as I write this book, I would LOVE lots of feedback on it, what you think, what could be better/changed, because although I’m sure it will be a perfect book for all to love and read, I will be allowing you to pretend that it could be better
So here is a summary of my book!
Basically, two boys, 19 years of age, Computer Whiz Zach Knopp/General Smart-Guy Clint Given…decide they want to start a project. A project that consists of psychological deception and great influence on the world. But they first must get the funding for such a project. Resorting to petty thievery, they acquire their funding, and come up with possibly the best idea for the project they could have….Getting a patent on Binary Code. Within literally 2 days of getting this patent, they have singehandedly shut down the internet, all video game creation, movie creation, and computer manufacturing. Now being the closest to owning the internet as you could possibly get, these two teenagers buy out Microsoft, and in less than a week they triple what Bill Gates has made his entire life. But this project turns into something much bigger than money. As these two fight for their lives in this epic tale of deception and lies, they will soon find that with great power, comes great responsibility, the hard way.
Chapter 1- The Beginning
“Hey man, you know our project starts today, right?” Zach said calmly as he walked up to his friend.
“Yeah, wouldn’t miss it for the world, but then again, this might just give us the world.” Clint replied as they stopped about a foot away from each other.
Zach gave a nod, then motioned for Clint to follow him. “So I’ve decided on a name for our experiment. I think we should call it ‘Project Ion’.” Zach spouted as they turned to walk down Sunset. Sunset was the name of the street next to Zach’s house, it was known for being the steepest drop in Mount Vernon as far as roads went.
“You remember the first step?” Zach inquired.
“Yeah, large amounts of cash, followed by large amounts of influence.” Clint replied.
“Exactly, that’ll probably be the hardest part of our operation, seeing as not many people have large amounts of money. Or influence for that matter.”
“I don’t suppose we have an ace in the hole? Like some back-up cash or anything?” Clint asked as we turned the corner onto my street.
Zach chuckled a bit, then said “Man, if we had ANY cash, we’d have started this long ago. And besides, I think I know how we’re going to get started. We’ve got a bit of work to do, so let’s get started…”
As they walked into the house, it was no surprise to them that Zachs’ parent’s dog, Roxy, started barking at them. Not the smartest dog in the world, but still lovable. Zach’s little eight year old brother, Gage, was in the center of the living room playing with his toys. From a first glance, they were the living, breathing definition of a normal family. Zach’s mom stayed at home to watch the kids, while his step-dad went to work on the weekends. The middle child, James, was at wrestling practice.
Although being 19 and not having a car, license, or job is usually grounds for instant making fun of, not many people did it, because they could sympathize with his situation. It was a time of economic troubles, and by the sounds of the news everyday, things weren’t getting any better.
But they were men, men on a mission. They sought to inflict great influence on the bitter world. Fame was one thing not easy to come across now-a-days. Especially the good kind of fame.
“So this is what we’re going to do…” Zach said as they stepped into his room. “In short, we’re going to save up enough money to patent the binary code, giving us control of quite a few assets, including the production of software, which should rake in enough money to buy some stocks, and essentially get our feet off the ground.”
“Uhh, ok…you’re the boss…” Clint sputtered.
