BOOK #1 – Marty McFly
This project is now a 150+ page manuscript for a full-length novel. It’s not nearly done, but lately it’s been writing itself. And as you know, writers are supposed to ‘write what you know’. These guys have got excellent taste in music courtesy of yours truly.
MARTY MCFLY –
So the premise is that the main character Martin is a mid-twenties guy stuck up in his head. He’s got a horrible track record with women and is disappointed in his life path thus far. He plays Starcraft at work all day until he can go out drinking or to a show at the local indie club and relive his old band’s glory days. As a product of the’ Y Generation’ he has been told he can be and do anything, but he’s not up for the challenge, until Tabitha, a beautiful temp, begins working in his office. He’s fascinated with her, and she for some reason beyond Martin seems into him as well. This is not a romance in the traditional sense, more in that fleeting leading up to the special ‘firsts’ of relationships. Martin and Tabitha go on adventures to second-hand stores, race through the metro cowboy and Indian style and exchange sweet, intimate, moments reserved for lovers only. With Martin’s exgirlfriends’ popping up everywhere and Tabitha’s departure date looming for charity work overseas¸ their relationship is less than perfect.
BOOK #2 – Non-Fiction “I WANNA WORK FOR THE CBC”
Samantha Everts has done everything. She has been a concert organizer, radio DJ, barista, English teacher, model, librarian, rock journalist, and after 7 years of post-secondary education she is ready for the real world. Or is she? Faced with entry-level administration job offers, she found nothing related to her interests or career goals. Then again, what were her career goals? With a background in English and Film Studies and penchant for international travel, surely she’d find employment in her field of choice. Not so.
Join Samantha as she speaks with people that have achieved their career goals and hear their stories as twenty something’s struggling to find their place in the world. Artists, musicians, writers and entrepreneurs share their experiences. This book is full of candid interviews from Henry Rollins, Broken Social Scene members, social-media guru Casie Stewart, author Mark Frutkin, and many more. This book also provides insight to other twenty-somethings’ desire to be fulfilled in a career from those not quite there yet.
