[close] Ever get the feeling that, as you're reading a book, it somehow doesn't really seem to be that particular book that you were secretly looking for? That underneath the mountain of books you've read, your underlying quest, whether you even knew it or not, was to find a book, or a series of books that truly took your imagination and eloped with it beyond the hills of expectation, leading you by the hand into unchartered realms of pure ecstacy of discovery? I do not promise you that you will find what you seek here, but, if, in your reading journey, you have accumulated a grassland of fertile ideas ricocheting off the insides of your mind, then this is the palce to share them. Originality is not dead, and old, tired genres and character types can be manipulated by those who desire to do so. Perhaps together, we can find that story we have each of us wanted to read, or write.
