Wow.
I just finished reading 1984, a book written by George Orwell (of Animal Farm fame). The story has really struck me. It was one of those books that grabs you right from the beginning and carries you through to the end, and a plot where you’re hoping the entire time for something good to happen at the end and it just doesn’t come. I don’t want to spoil the whole plot here, but I think the most chilling part about it were the traits in the two main characters that reminded me of myself and Rachel. Wow. Yeah, so that’s been on my mind for several days now. I highly recommend the book.
On another note, I finally decided to post a short story I wrote not too long ago. I’m considering sending it in to a magazine, and I wanted to see what some other people thought of it.
