I decided to write "An Imperial Affliction" from the incredible novel/movie "The Fault In Our Stars." I wanted to read Hazel's favorite book so badly, but unfortunately, An Imperial Affliction does not exist. So, I figured it would be nice to write the book myself. All of the writing in this story will be my own and this is how imagine this brilliant story to be, so I am sorry if my interpretation is different from your won. Credit to John Green wrote who the novel, "The Fault In Our Stars." Also, I am not trying to steal his original ideas and I am striving to make this story part of my own. Side note: I will be updating this quite often, only because I want to make sure that this will turn out to become an excellent piece of work - for me at least. In addition, please forgive me if I am not adding new chapters as much. Sadly, my real life cancer friends are not doing so grand at the moment, however I appreciate that you are all okay with this, (then again, I have never gotten much feedback on this story). Thank you, and enjoy!

My name is Anna. I'm sixteen years old and I have cancer. But, don't worry about me. I'm perfectly fine. The people you should be worried about include my tulip obsessed mother, her mysterious lover, The Dutch Tulip Man, and my delusional hamster who thinks that running on that little wheel of his will actually get him somewhere. Welcome to my life. Special Thanks to: Augustus Waters Hazel Grace Lancaster Peter Van Houten And of course... Our beloved John Green, an amazing author who can bring characters and plots to life and who made this story possible. A/N ~~ There will be the use of one direct quote from TFIOS for AIA.
