"How does the mind even work?" "I've always though it's like a steam engine." "Wrong," said a man dressed as a carrot, posing as if saying something cool. "The mind is like a Hamster running on a wheel. Fast, slow or non-existent; all depends upon the one manning the treadmill." "Huh," nodded the first one in agreement. "Sounds like an excuse for someone to write a series of unconnected stories that make no sense whatsoever," nodded the second one in disagreement. "Yeah," said the man as he turned around, glaring at the eternal sky. "I guess you could say that." He then disappeared, leaving only his tacky costume behind.

"My name is Jace Overton, and I have schizophrenia." Mr. Stevenson stood from his desk, his eyes widening and surprise slapping him in the face as if he'd just discovered vibranium. "Wow, so you're a schizophrenic?" My mom told me there were three kinds of people in the world: people that didn't care, people that cared enough, and people that cared too much. He was definitely the third type of person. "No, I have schizophrenia. I am not a schizophrenic." "Is there a difference?" I stared at him blankly, "I wouldn't have corrected you if there wasn't." ----- Jace is weird. Jace has a blunted affect, a knack for memorizing, and a strong attraction to a Pakistani girl named Elizabeth. He also has a distant father, an overbearing psychiatrist and two best friends that get him into situations (some of which end with his nose [and heart] being broken). He has a sister that's ten years his senior, daily medication, serious hatred for the color white and a mere four years to accomplish the following things: 1) Make his parents fall in love with each other again. 2) Make Elizabeth fall in love with him. 3) Get people to understand that he has schizophrenia, he is not a schizophrenic. The former is attached to an identity while the latter is a label. A CampNaNoWriMo Novel
