BIP – 1.11 John – Leaving Town Revised
Hi folks – I reworked the first chapter with John. The idea here is create some understanding for John and his inner-conflict. We need to understand where John’s coming from so that the behaviour I have planned for him later on will make sense. This is laying the foundation for the reader to have some compassion for an earnest, fiercely talented kid with some serious anger issues.

BIP – 1.21 Stephan’s Violin
This chapter introduces musician child prodigy, Stephan Archer. Wickedly talented, already a celebrity, Stephan’s life has been far from typical… and it’s about to become even more unusual.
BIP – 1.11 John – Leaving Home
Here’s the introduction for the character John Cunningham. I haven’t completely settled on his age, likely 15. He’s broody, temperamental, angry and too sensitive at times. He’s a fun fellow to create – he’s based on a number of people in my real life including a romanticized version of a high school crush of mine.
