-CONTENT COMING SLOWLY- My attempt at writing a proper story. Love it or hate it, let me know good people of the Webosphere! :D This is the story of Quentin Tolbert, a young writer living in Paris. The year is 1934, and this story follows Quentin's effort to complete the book he believes will be his finest work, though nothing seems to go as planned, and when a murder sets in motion a series of events that catch him entirely by surprise, Quentin is torn from the comfort of his apartment and into the maw of 1930's Europe.

A prequel to the screenplay, "The Blue Herring", written by myself in 2018. However, this short story can also stand on its own. (I recommend reading the screenplay first.) ---------------------------------------------------- 18 y/o Lionel Enright, having recently graduated as Valedictorian of his high school class, is self-considered a misfit of sorts. However, he has never been let down by his incredible intellect. Others know this as well--including the members of his town's skillfully concealed criminal alliance, Decadent. Being a young, clever lad whose name is scarcely known in his hometown of New Haven, Connecticut, he is the perfect contender for induction. In other words, their ideal new recruit. For all of his life, Lionel has never been a trouble-maker; not once a delinquent, a hot-head, or a player of any kind. However, Decadent has been known to change people--to change their paradigm and how they view themselves and the world around them. It has also been known that after a while, those members who were hesitant will no longer want to leave. In other words, as time carries on, they eventually come to enjoy the thrill of it all.
