        First I would like to say that this is my first full novel that I am having an audience for. This is kind of an experiment to see if I should get this published or even finish writing it at all. I would love feedback and honest opinions. Hope you enjoy for many reasons, one being that this is the story I want to read and need to write. 

    I have just under half of the story written and think this is a good way to see if I should keep at it.

    I know that some of what I say as myself can be long and possibly wordy and I apologize for that. I hope that you like my story and even possibly me.
