  • Synopsis: The first day I ever walked to school early was the day that I was killed. Friedrich Nietzsche Preparatory Academy was not the kind of place that anyone would want to get to early, let alone an hour before the start of school. I know that I should have been watching before I crossed, but it was my first day of senior year and I felt like nothing could ever kill me. How ironic considering that I died on impact the truck just kept on rolling, the driver not even realizing that he had just ended a life at its prime. He was too interested in signing Gretchen Wilson’s “Redneck Woman” at the top of his lungs. I looked down at my body lying mangled on the street and thought to myself, holy fucking shit I'm not going to graduate. I'm going to stay 17 until the end of god damned time. It was as if time stopped, nothing really registered until I looked at the blood all over my Converse. Time suddenly sped-up as I was hit by something. What is it called? Oh yeah, an epiphany...

RULES & REGULATIONS

  • Constructive Criticism: If you think something is bad, back it up. Don't exactly say, "YOU SUCK!" and leave it at that. Worse, don't condemn others, "You spell like a 2nd grayder," hypocrite. Please be nice.
  • Be Respectful: This applies to both treating other readers and the authors nicely. Don't be rude to people with other viewpoints. Don't be tyrannical towards the author and blackmail them to change disagreeable endings. Don't make fun of anyone for what they write or say. AND NO PIRACY!!! Don't force us to make our stories private. We like keeping them public and availiable for anyone who's interested.
  • Be Mindful: Authors may not post every nanosecond. Understand and respect that. People are busy nowadays. If you have an issue with that, go to the government and force them to ban homework. As a law.
  • Praise (optional but encouraged): This is the biggest builder of self-esteem and self-reassurance that our authors receive. They are not PAID, so give them some props and help them on their way to professionalism and maybe one day they will be published, renowned authors. You never know =)
  • Enjoy Your Time Here: No rush. No Pressure. This is for fun. With school today, pleasure reading is almost a forgotten memory. Let's bring it back.
