Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I am writing a novel to raise money for an amazing charity. Starlight raise money to grant wishes of terminaly ill children, they have done wonderful things in the past and continue to do so with your help. It can't be done without you letting them.
My goal is finish a 175 page novel (thats over 50,000 words) in a month. I will have finished this story by midnight on the 30th November 2009. The story is based on the topic of Love.
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
So please dig deep and donate now.
Sneak peak at the story...
Prologue
Well I never expected anything like this, especially not when i had just started; the bright light that was in front of me, blinding me started swinging from side to side. Back and forwards, back and forwards, but no one had touched it, or at least not physically.
I stepped back from the light, taking a deep breath in.
"you did it!!!" came the excited voice from behind me, "you actually did it!"
"why do you think it's a good thing?" I asked, staring at the light in its casually un casual movements."because" the excited voice, which wasn’t so excited said simply.
"that's not really helpful, ya know!"If i wasn't right there staring at that light, I probably would have laughed at the comment, but here I was. And if that wasn't all, if I was here, then this was impossible and I was dreaming, but in a dream you don't feel the whip in your own heart when you try and tell yourself that you are in fact dreaming, which in this highly unfortunate case was true. I could feel the little pieces of my heart slowly break their way apart from each other as I followed the swinging light now not only with my eyes but with my soul, it was as if it was hypnotizing me, but hypnotizing me to do what exactly.
I willed my eyes to shut, if anything they could do that for me. they could at least shut! Maybe, Possibly not! Obviously not, who am I even trying to kid. It's not like I could actually tell my eyes to shut. I had no control over who I was at that point of time, nothing at all. That's what self-hypnotizing does to you apparently, or at least it was what this felt like.
Even if I had only just started on this path that I really didn't want to take I was better than the rest of them, no one could do this at this point of time in their training, and it wasn't even me who was special, or at least not yet.
