This is my #NaNoWriMo project from 2015. I was dared by my writing partner and young adult person to post it on here because he was enjoying it so much, it is RAW and UNEDITED. I know it's not very good, but he wanted to be able to read it as I finished chapters. I have been tempted to delete it lately, but he told me to stop whining and start writing on it again. So, you may see edits on this coming up and/or you may see more "raw" chapters. This is not a great work of fiction, but it was fun working on it. Oy, this needs so much work! Writing Prompt: Write a Story That Starts in a Forest and Ends in a Tea-Cup #storydares Dare of the Day: Is about travel snafus...I'm writing about a Zombie Taxi Driver That Doesn't Go Exactly Where You Want Him To (Taxi Driver's Name: Faghü Davis)
