So 11th Sun is about 90% of the way through its second draft. At that point posting here will go on hiatus for a couple of months. During that time I will be taking a break from thinking about it (month one) then working on the second draft (many more months) and sometime around there I'll start posting again.

During month one, with nothing to do, I'll be writing somethings else. I've been on a high school kick lately and I haven't found quite what I'm looking for, so I'm going to write it.

"Be the change you want to see in the world." -quoting Ghandi to my brother

"I don't think Ghandi was talking about porn" -my brother

The point is this: I don't see a lot of high school writing with drugs. Drugs were everywhere in my high school. I dabbled but it never stuck. But I try to get as real to the experience as I can with my work.

Do you get turned off by drugs in the stuff you read? And do you get turned off by teenagers using drugs?
